By Anya Schmidt | LOS ANGELES – 2025/06/07 07:27:04
Ads are coming to the Now Playing screen on YouTube Music,along with the audio advertisements that already interrupt the listening experience for free users.
For those who don’t subscribe to YouTube Music, advertisements will now appear not only between songs but also on the Now Playing interface. The album art is reduced in size to make way for a rectangular ad, which features a “sponsored” label in the lower-left corner. Furthermore, the progress bar turns yellow, and the next/last buttons are grayed out during the ad display.
