Instead of relying on what the algorithm thinks you want to watch, you can type specific custom prompts like \u201cgive me something different beyond my usual feed\u201d or \u201chelp me unwind after work with guided meditations under 10 minutes\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-6\">\n<p>The prompt can be as detailed or short as you like, and YouTube will then use its AI to generate the custom feed for you. These feeds can then be pinned on top of your YouTube homepage so you can access that content instantly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-9\">\n<h2>How to access YouTube custom feeds<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Open the YouTube app on your phone. Make sure you have YouTube search and watch history enabled.<\/li>\n<li>Look for the \u201cYour custom feed\u201d chip pinned directly at the top of your Home page.<\/li>\n<li>Type a specific custom prompt or select from automated suggestions.<\/li>\n<li>If the content recommendations begin to feel stale, edit the text prompt directly inside the feed&#8217;s header to instantly refresh the space.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How it works<\/h2>\n<p>Start your feed: Tap the \u201cYour custom feed\u201d chip at the top of your Home page.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-10\">\n<p>Tell us what you\u2019re curious about: Enter a prompt describing what you\u2019re looking for, or choose from suggested prompts, and we\u2019ll create a special feed for you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-11\">\n<p>Change up the vibe: You can edit your prompt at any time directly in the text box at the top of your custom feed to generate a brand new space.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-12\">\n<h2>Who can use custom feeds?<\/h2>\n<p>The new feature is only available to users in the US using the streaming platform&#8217;s mobile app. The feature is also currently limited to English only.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-13\">\n<p>Another downside for privacy-conscious users is that the feature only works if YouTube search and watch history are enabled, meaning users must allow Google to continuously track what they search for and watch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-16\">\n<h2>YouTube to add AI labels to videos<\/h2>\n<p>In related news, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.livemint.com\/technology\/tech-news\/will-you-get-free-youtube-premium-lite-with-jio-google-ai-pro-plan-google-says-theres-a-catch-11779272883218.html\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"YouTube\">YouTube<\/a> also announced that it will now automatically start adding disclaimers when it detects content that is \u2018photorealistic and meaningfully AI altered\u2019.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-17\">\n<p>For long videos, the labels will appear directly below the video player.
