9to5 says that now, when you open the YouTube Music app on any mobile device, you’ll see the last song you were listening to populate the miniplayer, regardless of which device you were listening on before. Again, the app was able to similarly help you pick up where you left off when moving from the web app to the mobile app, but it couldn’t do the same when moving between different mobile devices.
The updated behavior brings YouTube Music a little closer to the cross-device experience Spotify offers. On that platform, the player syncs across all devices you’re currently signed into — if you’re listening to Spotify on your phone and open the desktop app, you’re able to either move playback to the desktop app, or control playback on your phone using your computer in real time.
