If you’re a person who likes to keep up with all of your favorite music artists, then you most likely search through YouTube Music for any new releases. However, the platform has been working on a way of making that easier. According to a new report, YouTube Music is finally rolling out its new Activity Feed.
Music streaming services are all about keeping you up to date on the people making the music you love. Thus, the platform often gives you notifications when users you follow release new content. However, it never really had a unified way of seeing all of the updates. This is something that YouTube Music has been working on for a bit, and we recently covered what the company planned on doing.
YouTube Music is finally rolling out the Activity feed
The beauty of the Activity feed is that it allows you to view a unified feed of all the new updates you should keep up with. If you are subscribed to an artist on YouTube Music, any new releases from them will live in the feed.
You will see a new icon on the home screen sitting right next to the search icon. If this looks familiar, it’s the same icon as the bell icon on the YouTube app. When you tap it, you will see a feed of the artists you follow. Along with that, you’ll also see a feed of suggested artists. These are artists that the app thinks you’re most likely to want to follow.
It will act just like the notification section in the YouTube app. You’ll see a reverse chronological order feed of artists that you’re subscribed to.
Going to the Library tab, and turning on the Artists and Subscriptions filters will pretty much accomplish the same thing. However, accessing the Activity feed is a lot more straightforward. All you have to do is open the app and tap on the Bell icon.
This is rolling out to the iOS and Android apps currently. So, if you don’t see it just yet, then you may want to wait a bit.
