YouTube Music Rolls Out Cross-Device Queue Sync Across Android, iOS, and Web

The quiet server-side rollout addresses a long-running complaint by prioritizing the most recent session across signed-in devices.

Overview

  • Listening queues now carry over between phone, tablet, and browser for users logged into the same account.
  • Web implementation is live today, with access on Android and iOS appearing via the latest YouTube Music app versions.
  • A temporary miniplayer tag such as “From your iPhone” or “From your browser” indicates the queue’s origin until playback resumes.
  • The newest active session automatically overrides other device queues to keep the lineup consistent.
  • Reports differ on whether playback resumes at the exact timestamp, and Google has not issued a formal announcement.
