YouTube Music has introduced offline downloads for its web app, aligning it with the mobile app and allowing users to save songs and playlists for offline listening. The feature, which has been in testing, is gradually rolling out to users and will count towards the service's 10-device download limit, expiring if not connected to the internet every 30 days.
YouTube Music for web has been redesigned to match the Android version, featuring a fullscreen Now Playing experience with a new miniplayer design. The update hides the app bar, introduces a larger album artwork with a blurred background, and reorganizes the controls. The revamp is cleaner and includes support for offline downloads, with a new miniplayer design docked at the bottom for a narrow PWA experience.
YouTube Music's web app is beginning to roll out support for offline downloads, allowing users to download albums, singles, playlists, podcasts, and songs for offline listening. The feature includes a new Downloads tab on the Library page and a 30-day restriction requiring an active internet connection. This update addresses the lack of native desktop apps for YouTube Music and is currently available for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Opera users.
The YouTube Music website may soon support offline downloads, as evidenced by a "Downloads" tab that appeared when accessing the site without an internet connection. The feature includes filters for Playlists, Podcasts, Songs, and Albums, and a link to "Download Settings" for managing downloads. While the actual ability to download is not yet live in the UI, it is expected to require a YouTube Premium subscription and may also include podcasts.
