Apps with an alternative UI for YouTube Music?
My free trials for YTM and Apple Music ended but I’m trying to decide if I should pick one of those or just go back to Spotify.
I honestly kinda hate YTM’s UI and how the queue works (and the app is buggy), but I LOVE its algorithm and being able to listen to anything on YouTube.
I’ve used Musi in the past, and I was messing around with Demus and Lyra yesterday and I much prefer the UI of both of those apps. Their queue systems are perfect, I wish all music players worked like theirs. I prefer how Demus handles Mix generation over Lyra, but I prefer how Lyra handles artists/albums and song organization over Demus and its playlist import functionality is less buggy.
When adding a song to a playlist though, Demus lets you search playlists, but Lyra lets you can add one song to multiple playlists at a time. This is HUGE for me (I have 200+ playlists). I don’t understand why you can’t do either on YTM like you can with Spotify and AM, and it’s a shame I have to pick and choose one or the other between Demus and Lyra.
Anyway, since YTM is effectively just a website (as far as I know there isn’t even a Mac app for it, unless I just couldn’t find it), and apps like Musi, Demus, and Lyra are basically just custom browsers for YouTube, are there any such apps on iOS that would allow me to use YTM with a unique interface that makes more sense with how I normally use music players? If so that would be a bigger point in YTM’s favor as far as which subscription service I choose.
