But little changes like adding a new homescreen shortcut to the YouTube Music app could make all the difference.<br \/>\nYou will need at least version 3.65 of the YouTube Music app for this to pop up when you long press the app icon.<br \/>\nThe new YouTube Music homescreen shortcut launches the My Mix list<br \/>\nIf you&#8217;ve not used YouTube Music before there&#8217;s a feature inside called My Mix.<br \/>\nThis is a personalized playlist that is created by the YouTube Music team that is meant to serve up music based on your preferences. The list is not supposed to be exhaustive. Meaning playback is endless and it&#8217;ll just keep moving to new songs that are based on the personalization.<br \/>\nThe new homescreen shortcut launches directly into this playlist. Playback then begins immediately and you can just sit back and enjoy what&#8217;s playing. Or you can take the extra step and cast the music or stream it to a compatible Bluetooth speaker or Chromecast-enabled device.<br \/>\nThe main thing to keep in mind when you go to launch this new shortcut is that it isn&#8217;t actually labeled My Mix. Instead, it&#8217;s labeled as Play My Station. But when you tap on the button it&#8217;ll launch into the My Mix playlist.<br \/>\nSo if you don&#8217;t see My Mix in the shortcuts list, you&#8217;re not missing it. It&#8217;s just under a different name.<br \/>\nJust in time for the new migration<br \/>\nAs mentioned earlier this new feature addition is coming at a good time. Because soon enough there are surely going to be a lot more YouTube Music users.<br \/>\nGoogle Play Music isn&#8217;t quite gone yet, but Google is starting the process to eventually shut things down. Which is why it put out the migration tool to make things easier for people.<br \/>\nIf you haven&#8217;t migrated your library over from Google Play Music yet, doing so sooner rather than later is recommended. You can use the easy how to guide linked just above to go through the process too.<br \/>\nCompleting the process is fairly quick, though it could take a little while for the migration to finalize depending on how much music content you have.<br \/>\nThe post A New Homescreen Shortcut Has Been Added To YouTube Music appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/YouTube-Music-AH-NS-06-600x338-1.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s a new homescreen shortcut for YouTube Music, and probably just at the right time.
