YouTube Music for iOS finally lets you swipe for next or previous song

YouTube Music is now rolling out a new New Playing page for iOS that lets you swipe for the next/previous song. You no longer need to tap on the respective controls at the bottom of the page but use a straightforward swiping gesture on album artwork to change songs.

This feature has been available on Android for quite a while now, and it's finally making its way to the iPhone and iPad apps.


That's another instance when iOS users are getting very useful YouTube Music features late in comparison to Android users.

Last month, YouTube Music rolled out a super-cool Google-like feature that allows you to hum or sing a song and find it... well, that initially also only rolled out to Android users. Now, interestingly enough, it looks like the feature was reportedly rolled back.
