YouTube is currently experimenting with a new feature that highlights the ‘Subscribe’ button whenever the word ‘subscribe’ is mentioned in a video. This experimental update has been observed across a wide range of content on the platform, suggesting that the procedure has been fully automated.

It seems that YouTube is aiming to make it easier for users to subscribe to their favorite channels by drawing attention to the ‘Subscribe’ button.

Regular YouTube users are familiar with content creators using customized animations or requests for subscriptions within their videos. However, in this new test, YouTube is directly highlighting the creators’ statements by making the actual ‘Subscribe’ button glow in response to the request. This feature has appeared for some users and is being tested by the platform itself.

In addition to the ‘Subscribe’ button enhancement, YouTube is also reportedly testing other new features. One of these features is the ability for users to hum tunes in order to search for songs. Users will simply need to hum a half-remembered tune, and YouTube will find the precise song. This feature is currently being tested by a select group of Android users before it is rolled out to a wider audience.

Furthermore, YouTube is said to be working on a redesign of the ‘Skip Ads’ button. The new button appears to be smaller in size, with the word “ads” no longer being capitalized. The new design is supposed to have an angled border with smaller letters.

YouTube remains one of the most popular video streaming platforms, and these new updates could improve the user experience by simplifying the subscription process and enhancing song search capabilities.
