YouTube Music releases 2023 Recap allowing you to tap into your 2023 Recap page on the YouTube Music app and scroll through to see personalized stats (top artists, songs, moods, genres, albums, playlists and more) from this year. This year they have brought the full ‘Recap’ experience to the YouTube app, where you’ll see a dedicated Recap page featuring the same stats and insights available on YouTube Music. New features have been added to the ones added in 2022.
New features added to 2023 Recap
Custom album art
Pulling from your top track, energy score, and top moods from this year, there is a blend of colours, vibes, and visuals to match an aesthetic that speaks to your year in music ‘…If you were an album, this would be the cover’.
Matching your mood with your music
‘Music has a special way of expressing your feelings even when you can’t. Now you can take a journey through your feels with our new feature matching your mood to your top songs throughout the year. It’s the feel good vibes you got every time you heard Lil’ Durk and J. Cole on “All My Life.” Maybe it’s that ex you keep thinking about courtesy of SZA’s “Kill Bill.” Tap into to see the top moods that defined your 2023.’
Pair your favourite Google Photos memories to your top songs
Last year, YouTube Music introduced shareable cards highlighting your top songs from each season which you could personalize by adding your own images directly from Google Photos on the YouTube Music app. With 2023 Recap, you can now shuffle and customize the photos yourself to create your own unique visual celebrating your year.
For those wishing to share their music personality on social media, they can do so using the hashtag #YouTubeMusicRecap.
