Youtube ‘Hum’ to Search: Google is reportedly introducing a new song search feature to YouTube Music “Hum to Seacrh”. According to Android Authority, the YouTube Music App for iOS now includes a new song search icon next to the voice search option for select users.
This new icon enables users to play, sing, or hum a song to initiate a search for that specific music track in the YouTube Music library. According to the report, the feature is gradually being added to YouTube Music’s iOS app and will be available to all iPhone users in the coming days.
Although there is no information on the Android app’s rollout plan, there are alternatives available. A similar feature is available in the YouTube app for Android. Clicking on the Voice Search option in the YouTube app allows users to switch between Voice and Song search from the top of the screen. In addition, Google Voice Search allows you to search for a song by humming or singing.

- Step 3: Next to the search bar, tap on the microphone icon to activate the hum-to-search feature.
- Step 4: Allow YouTube to access your microphone for this function.

Alternatively, Android smartphone users can use Google Assistant to recognize a song by playing, singing, or humming. Google has integrated a Now Playing feature into Pixel phones that, when enabled, automatically identifies and displays the song currently playing on the device’s lock screen. Earlier, it was reported that Google is working to improve the podcast listening experience on YouTube Music. The music streaming service will most likely add a new “Trim Silence” feature that will automatically detect and skip pauses in podcasts. This feature is already available on Google Podcasts and is expected to roll out shortly on the YouTube Music app as well.
