YouTube they sent me a message on YouTube music wanting me to subscribe to it and I'm not interested in it I would like them to stop showing it.

I spoke with a support person about this issue through chat. It is basically shoved down your throat just for clicking on the app. It is supposed to revert back to free after the trial but we will see. The Rep also advised that it is provided by their system when they detect a new account. Thank goodness I don't and never have trusted Google with ANY payment information and because of this issue I will NEVER provide any payment information or add any payment method to my Google account. They just can't be trusted while doing business this way. I advised on the "survey" after the chat session that I will be contacting consumer affairs of this Shoved down throat approach they are using to force people into something that wasn't asked for to start with! I just can't imagine it to be legal and even if it is, it is a terrible way to lure people to do business with them. At least provide a way to end the trial so time isn't wasted getting hold of customer service for something someone didn't "sign up" for to begin with!

I had Youtube music with ads, then I subscribed to Youtube premium, and now I can't add songs to the premium platform.
I am still in the free trial period, and I want to stay on it, IF I CAN add more songs.

I have found it impossible to cancel my free trial You Tube Music membership, which is supposed to end today. It is ridiculous that Google has made it so difficult to cancel a trial.

By Alex Lerman5The revamp changes everything.
This is a great app, has the absolute biggest library(YouTube), option for video and all of this is just the early access version! Very excited to see what the future updates bring with them. Few complaints are: Remove the swipe to delete from playlists, or make it harder to trigger, like requiring a double swipe. This was an issue in GPM, still an issue here. Also add shuffle and repeat buttons on the play screen and the ability to add whole albums to playlists. Other than that, keep up the good work and keep expanding the official library, as it’s missing big albums like Stoney by post Malone and 4 your eyes only by J Cole and so on.

By Crazybubbles1014Good! Suggestion (Please)
I love the app and I don't know if there's a way to change this certain thing and I haven't noticed because I overlooked it, but I have one suggestion When I add a song to a playlist it doesn't add it to the top but adds it to the bottom and I was wondering if you could change that so I don't have to scroll all the way down to see if I actually added the song? Maybe you could make it so that there's more options on editing a playlist instead of just being able to move the songs around and deleting them because it's such a bore when I have to do it again and again. It helps when I see the new song I put on the playlist is on the 'cover' for it to know I actually put it in the right one. All in all I do love the app, that's my only request. Keep doing what you do (which is great stuff) and thanks for reading my suggestion, have a nice day •-•

By Caster Shell4Content winner, though lacking some polish and features
Hands down, the most music of any service. If it's a song that was recorded by humans it's probably in here. And will at some point come across your station. End of the day that's what matters most to me for a music service. Exposure to content. That said, the app is missing a few minor convenience features present in other similar services. My biggest peeve, no Windows PC music only mode. I listen to music a lot at work and would prefer not to eat bandwidth for videos I'm not watching. While in power the app has no option to keep the screen on meaning I have to unlock my phone to thumb a song down while driving. And the most minor, no way to thumb down a song that's not currently playing, gotta stop playing the current track, start playing the other one, then thumb it down. Also, why no access to comments?

By ColonelMcNasty68.54Love it!!!
I really love this app because I can lock my phone n the music keeps playing. I also love the fact it adapts to me but I do wish it wouldn’t try to slip crap songs in on me that I don’t care for. I’m particular about my music but I love music nonetheless. The price is a little much for my liking because I am on a budget but you take the good with the bad. If I haven’t given it the thumbs up, don’t play it. 9 times outta 10 they miss with the song they suggest. I would give it 5 stars and not complain about the price if it was not for this hiccup in their design. Id really like to only pay 10 bucks a month for this app, but thems the breaks. All in all it’s a good app. Fine tune it, n I’ll praise this app from the rooftops. I already suggest it to all my friends but id go viral if they either A-come down on the price, of B- not try to slip me the BS songs. Other than that, good show ladies n gents. Thank you

By Danku Coris Chi4Giving it four stars will change if app changes this.
I want the app to change the premium version I want the app to where I’m able to play it off the app it’s frustrating cause I wanna do other things and if I turn my phone off then woop the music turns off I don’t like it at all and u ask for a lot of money when using the premium since that I never bought it It would be fine if u could let us listen off the app that way we could do other things on our phones it’s fine if u add ads skip turns or something but u need to a least let us listen off the app that’s all and I will change this rating to a five star when that is fixed anyway I hope u get this and change it have a nice day...
