For the first time, I can tell YouTube what I want to watch instead of the other way around
YouTube has introduced a new custom feed feature that allows users to specify what they want to watch. This experimental feature, which began rolling out in May 2026, utilizes AI to create a dynamic feed based on user prompts. However, it comes with limitations, including a single active feed per account and a time constraint for inactivity.
- ▪YouTube's new custom feed allows users to input their preferences for content.
- ▪The feature is currently available to signed-in English-speaking users in the United States.
- ▪Users can edit their prompts at any time to refresh their content feed.
