Another seasonal recap is on the way to YouTube. The Spring Recap is here.
At the tail end of 2021, YouTube also introduced a seasonal recap overview similar to Spotify's Wrapped feature. However, today, the video sharing and media platform is releasing another recap moving forward, expanding on the seasonal rundowns of the company.
This one begins with the upcoming Spring Recap. YouTube Music will now provide new seasonal recaps of your favorite artists, songs, albums, and playlists. These recaps will be based on a user's activities on their YouTube Music.
YouTube Spring Recap 2022
YouTube's Spring Recap will let users explore more of their most listened to and most consumed content. On the Spring Recap landing page of the YouTube Music app, users will see the addition of a personalized Spring Recap playlist and, of course, their own personalized Spring Recap content that has been created for this feature.
The Verge reported that just like the 2021 Recap that was released, users will be able to see a rundown of the statistics of their most viewed albums, playlists, artists, and songs for the last season.
In Spotify Wrapped, usually released by the company at the end of the year, there is a noticeable trend or a "bandwagon effect" wherein users would likely want to share their stats on their social media platforms.
So with that, users can expect that YouTube's Spring Recap is also designed with an easy access tool to enable users to share it. Users would only need to tap the arrow located at the bottom of the stats card in order to quickly and easily share their Spring Recap statistics, and also share their playlist.
YouTube's Seasonal Recap
According to YouTube's official blog, the company announced that users might be excited as this is not only a one-time thing. Moving forward, Youtube stated that they would most likely retain these kinds of season recaps throughout the year.
The video sharing platform stated that they will do recaps for each season along with one annual recap at the end of the year for users to reflect on their year in music, providing a personal experience for their users.
YouTube stated, "Moving forward, we'll be providing listeners with a personalized experience for each season along with our annual Recap to reflect your year in music."
The company added, "You can also expect to see more new stats and features further showcasing your unique tastes later this year."
As previously reported here in iTechPost, last year, on December 6, Google's YouTube Music finally had its own Youtube Music 2021 Recap just like the Wrapped of its contender Spotify. It was a first-of-its-kind experience that delivered fun, shareable stats and a tailored playlist to its users that would help them revisit all of their favorite songs from the previous year.
During YouTube's first recap last year, it was a big step and also an exciting announcement for users of YouTube Music to not feel left out with the ongoing trend of Spotify Wrapped. From the looks of its new feature announcement of the Spring Recap, YouTube most certainly got a lot of positive and helpful feedback that the company will implement to improve the user experience with these recaps.
