What happened

The update is currently rolling out to a small group of users, likely as a server-side A/B test, before a potential wider release. The action bar is now a split row featuring circular quick-action buttons for offline downloads, library bookmarks, and comments alongside a prominent Play button and dedicated shuffle option. Google has been steadily giving YouTube Music a visual refresh, and the latest interface tweak gives album and playlist pages a much-needed facelift.
