The first change that the social network made is that now the users can explore related topics such as— baking videos, the latest late-night talk shows or enjoy your favourite music category, and other videos that the user loves to watch on YouTube. The choices that you get are founded on your present personalized suggestions and are intended to assist you to search, what the user is looking for. The suggested videos could be the ones that the user is currently watching, the channel’s other user is watching or the videos related to the topics that may interest the user. When the user scrolls up on the homepage or on when browsing next one the above might trigger. This new feature is currently available for signed-in users in English on the Android and will be available on iOS and desktop and other languages soon. The second effort the social platform has made is now it gives more control to remove the videos suggested by the channels that the users don’t want to see. All you have to do is just tap the three-dot menu next to a video on the homepage or Up Next, then “Don’t recommend channel.” After that, the viewer no longer gets videos from that channel recommended to you on YouTube. The company also added that the user can still get to see the videos if they have subscribed the channel, search for them, or visit the page of the channel or its trending tab. This new rollout is available worldwide on the video streaming app for Android and iOS and will be accessible on desktop shortly.
The platform stated that “Our goal is to explain why these videos surface on your homepage in order to help you find videos from new channels you might like. This new feature is available globally on the YouTube app for iOS today, and will be available on Android and desktop soon.” YouTube will also give you the reasons why a video may be recommended to you. Sometimes the viewers see videos from the channels that they may not have visited based on the user’s similar interests or might have watched in the past recommended by YouTube. Whenever YouTube suggests the videos the views will now see more information under the video in a small box.
