Mood playlist on YouTube Music: questions
Which moods can I pick?
Five presets: Workout (loud and fast), Focus (steady, not too bright), Chill (calm and warm), Party (bright and danceable) and Wind down (quiet and slow). Or open Advanced and set your own energy, mood and tempo (BPM) ranges.
Where do the songs come from?
From your library on YouTube Music: your playlists, the playlists you follow and your liked songs. Albums and artists cannot be a source. Pick up to 50 sources.
How long is the new playlist?
20, 50 or 100 songs, or all the songs that match, up to 500. The songs nearest to the mood stay. If only a few songs match, widen the ranges or pick more playlists.
Does it change my playlists?
No. Free Your Music makes a new playlist on YouTube Music. Your playlists stay as they are.
Is it free?
You can try the tool free and see the preview. Applying the change needs Pro. Every transfer between services is free, with no song limit.
What else can Free Your Music change on YouTube Music?
On YouTube Music, apps may add songs, remove songs, change the order, and rename playlists. Apps may not change the cover, so the tools that need it are not there.
Where can I use it?
In your browser at freeyourmusic.com/app on any computer, on iPhone and iPad, and on Android.
