YouTube Allows Creators to Save Audio Directly From the Shorts Feed

YouTube / YouTube Shorts Audio

YouTube has rolled out the ability for creators to save music directly from the Shorts feed. While watching Shorts, creators can now save the audio from the video and add it to a playlist. Previously, this functionality was only available from the audio pivot page.

Why It Matters: This update provides creators with an easier way to save audio they encounter while consuming content, allowing them to store inspirational audio for future use. By enabling creators to build up a library of audio tracks, YouTube helps facilitate more Shorts creation.

Music Features Keep Coming: This summer has been busy for social media platforms with music-related features, ranging from creators' ability to combine several songs into their Reels to users' ability to purchase tickets to concerts and festivals through TikTok videos.
