YouTube rolls out Explore tab to expand your video recommendations

YouTube has officially phased out its Trending tab for a new section called Explore on its iOS and Android apps. Similar to Trending, the Explore page includes videos that are popular at that moment, but it also incorporates broader categories, like gaming, music, beauty, and learning. Trending will retain its own button within the Explore page, so it’s not going away entirely.

You can tap buttons at the top to browse categories like fashion, gaming and news, while more conspicuous “artist on the rise” and “creator on the rise” areas may help you find a musician or vlogger you wouldn’t have noticed otherwise.

The feature will take a “few days” to reach everyone and should be automatic, so don’t be surprised if you don’t see it right away. YouTube also doesn’t intend to sit still. You should see more categories in Explore over time, making it that much more helpful if you’re scrounging for videos beyond your usual subscriptions.
