Google has made some big moves to make YouTube your go-to platform for all things entertainment. With the addition of podcasts to the YouTube Music app, it is clear that Google is aiming to replace the old Google Podcasts app and provide a one-stop shop for all your multimedia streaming needs. The update has just rolled out to the Android and Web versions of the app, with iOS still awaiting the feature. Nevertheless, iOS users can still access podcasts added via other platforms.
To add a podcast to the YouTube Music app on Android, users can simply go to the Library tab and tap on the “Podcasts” category. From there, they will see an option to “Add podcast” where they can browse top podcasts or add their desired podcast feed via a private or public .xml URL. The process is similar on the web version of the app as well. This move shows Google’s commitment to making YouTube Music the ultimate destination for podcasts by investing in resources to enhance the podcasting experience. This includes providing tools for easy migration and making it effortless for both podcasters and listeners to engage with the platform.
