YouTube is trying out a new feature that might significantly alter the videos you choose to watch.
It’s not always clear if a YouTube video is good just from the beginning. The first few seconds aren’t always enough to tell if it’s worth your time or delivers on its promises.
YouTube is testing a new feature to give viewers more information about videos before they play, helping them decide what to watch.
YouTube tests new ‘Discover videos with Preview’ feature
On March 19th, Google updated its help site to share news about a new feature for some mobile users. This feature will display short previews of suggested videos.
The new ‘Discover videos with Previews’ feature lets users see a quick preview – a few short, interesting clips – from recommended videos after they tap on it on the app’s home screen.
After watching a preview, YouTube viewers can choose to save the video to ‘Watch Later’ or explore other options.
The company says this test is currently available to a limited number of Android app users. They’ll share updates if they decide to release it on other devices, such as iPhones or computers.
It’ll be fascinating to observe how this new feature impacts creators – whether they experience a decrease or boost in views as videos with Previews become more common on Discover.
The platform is also asking viewers for feedback on whether videos seem cheaply or quickly made using artificial intelligence. At the same time, they’re introducing new features like an AI tool that allows you to ask your TV questions while watching videos.
