YouTube Music tests revamped 'now playing' interface
The changes were first highlighted by a Reddit user


(Web Desk) YouTube Music, Google’s music streaming service, is reportedly testing a redesigned user interface for its "Now Playing" screen, aiming to improve user experience.
This update follows the recent introduction of the "Speed Dial" feature, which replaced the "Listen Again" section last month, allowing quicker access to favorite tracks.
The changes were first highlighted by a Reddit user, u/Jumfrov, and later reported by 9to5Google. In the redesigned UI, key controls such as shuffle, rewind, play/pause, next, and repeat buttons have been relocated beneath the song title.
Secondary buttons for actions like liking, disliking, saving, commenting, and sharing have been shifted to the bottom of the screen.
Notably, the seek bar has also undergone a subtle modification. The prominent dot indicating scrubbing is now visible only when interacting with the timeline, offering a cleaner and more polished design.
Other elements of the Now Playing interface remain unchanged. However, the update has not yet been rolled out universally, with only select users reporting the changes.
It remains unclear whether this redesigned UI will be introduced on a larger scale or if YouTube Music will revert to the previous layout.
