Separate YouTube and YouTube Music With This Easy Hack

While it is good if you have YouTube and YouTube Music in the same subscription, Google does not allow to keep your interests as well as likes separate from each other between the two of them. I like this , but if you’re sick of the overlap. This is a simple YouTube hack that just separates YouTube and YouTube Music for good.

Why Separate YouTube and YouTube Music

I’m not sure if you’re watching music videos on YouTube, but that is what you do on the YouTube channel will affect your YouTube Music recommendations. You don’t want the songs and artists you like on YouTube Music to replace your YouTube suggestions.

I never used YouTube Music until I found a hack to separate the two. In other words, all my suggestions for Music were just lofi, nature sounds and other focus/relaxation type sounds. I want to listen to music when I have a preference for rock and pop.

Although Google has been unable to unlink the two, even though users complained for years that it was not linked by their . There are two ways to ensure you have no more overlap between the two streaming platforms.

Create a Second Google Profile Under the Same Account

This is a less-known hack that allows you to create’second Google profile’ without creating swimming second Google account. If you’re subscriber to YouTube premium and only have the individual plan, this is a game changer for your subscription. The premium benefits you can still use on your own platforms (ad-free, offline listening) without the need for a second premium subscription.

Start by logging into your YouTube account. Click your profile icon and select Settings -> Add or manage your channel(s).

Switch Accounts on YouTube Music

If you’ve got your new YouTube channel, then open the YouTube Music app (mobile or web) once you have gotten it. click your profile icon, then select**switch account *****. Choosing your new channel account choose your own profile () Both profiles will be displayed under the same email address as .

On the same device, if you’re using both YouTube and YouTube Music, switching accounts on one of these apps will not switch accounts in the other. Hence, this ensures that each app has its own profile (and keeps the two separate), yet is still technically connected under one email address.

This is the only exception to using separate profiles on YouTube and YouTube Music in the same browser window, even if you’re using different tabs. Using the two browser windows you need to use is one per service, and that’s for .

Use the Hack for Multiple YouTube Profiles Too

The other example of using this hack is to have more than one YouTube account under the same email address as I’ve found for this hacked. Using Google, you create many YouTube channels (or profiles) of your own choice. For example if you want one YouTube account for music videos, another for tutorials and yet another to share your own videos then create new channels for each.

Remember, each profile is a stand-alone account in Google’s eyes. None of your likes, preferences, playlists, or history carries over.

The One Downside

Aside from YouTube Music, if you’re a long-time user of the app, there is one big downside. Most music streaming transfer tools are not working properly because both profiles are under the same email address. It’s a manual copy of your playlists from one profile to another by you’ll have to manually copy them, for example, as .

It is easiest to tap the Share icon on any playlist on YouTube Music and text or email it to yourself. You have your new YouTube Music account logged in, open the share link and save the playlist to your library while Then. All playlists must be public for this to work.

Good news It’s easy to train YouTube Music’S algorithm to give you good suggestions as soon as you start building new playlists.

Create a Second Google Account

For example, if you’re a free user or subscriber to YouTube Premium and are on tv play with the family, create stubers in Google account (with new email address)? A second account is one of the six users you can add your second as one if free slots left, since family plans have up to 6 users with their own accounts on one plan.

It’s easier to separate YouTube and YouTube Music for those who have a lot of playlists they don’t want them manually moved over. On individual plans, Premium users don’t have this option.

This is the way you choose this method, so that if you have playlist transfer tools to move your music between your YouTube Music accounts.

Either way you choose ensures that you can finally use YouTube and YouTube Music as two separate apps versus the annoying interconnected mess they usually have.
