YouTube is making updates based on what users want. The platform has announced two new features for creators and viewers. These include an expanded auto-dubbing tool and new options for gifting during live streams.
Let’s look at the auto-dubbing feature first. It lets creators translate their videos into different languages. It also automatically adds voiceovers in those languages, making videos easier to understand worldwide.
YouTube first tested this feature with a small group in 2023. Now, it is available to all creators in the YouTube Partner Program (YPP). If you are in the YPP, you can try it by signing up through YouTube Studio.
YouTube Rolls Out Auto-Dubbing for All Creators and New Live Gifting Feature
This is a big step for creators who want more international viewers. Language barriers can block people from sharing their content. Auto-dubbing helps creators connect with audiences that speak different languages. It also allows viewers to enjoy videos without relying on subtitles.
YouTube plans to improve the tool further. The goal is to help more creators reach viewers around the world. This can lead to more views, more subscribers, and stronger online communities.
Along with auto-dubbing, YouTube is adding new features to live-stream gifting. They are testing a new option called Combo Gifting. This lets fans send multiple gifts during a live stream at the same time.
Before this update, fans could only send one gift at a time using jewels. Now, with Combo Gifting, they can start a “combo” by sending one gift. If more gifts are sent quickly, the combo continues.
Here is how it works: when someone sends a gift, a special button appears on the screen. The button stays visible for a few seconds. If more gifts are sent fast, the combo keeps going, and the button stays longer. The gifts also get pinned to the stream, making them stand out.
Everyone watching the stream can see the combo happen. It’s a fun way to support streamers and get noticed. This makes live streams more lively and exciting for viewers.
YouTube says the new gifting feature was created from user feedback. Fans wanted a way to send several gifts at once and make them more visible. The company hopes this will make giving gifts more fun and engaging.
Both updates show YouTube cares about its community. Whether it’s breaking language barriers or adding fun ways to interact, these tools help creators grow and connect with viewers.
More updates are coming soon. YouTube keeps working to improve its platform. Stay tuned for new features.
