New Update YouTube introduces Stable Volume feature in YouTube app

[Ink]

It seems YouTube is rolling out a new “Stable Volume” feature on its app. The platform hasn’t said what the feature does, and it doesn’t look like everyone has it just yet. The feature was spotted by a few folks, including a Redditor and YouTuber M. Brandon Lee. It reportedly appears under the Ambient mode option on the video settings page.

While it’s unclear what the “Stable Volume” setting does and how it works, the name suggests it controls and evens out volume across different videos. This could help YouTube users avoid a sudden and sharp volume jump or a random decline in volume levels while watching videos from different creators and channels. It’s unclear if there’s any AI involved in how the feature recognizes and optimizes volume levels across videos.

Volume normalization is the first thing I do when setting up Windows Audio, without it volume difference is just unbearable. Never figured out why android doesn't have that built in.

After being available on mobile for some time, YouTube’s “stable volume” feature is now expanding to Android TV and Google TV devices.

Stable volume is a feature designed to improve your listening experience with a wide array of YouTube content. In simple terms, it works by automatically adjusting the volume of videos you watch. This means you shouldn’t need to reach for your remote to turn the volume down for loud videos or turn it up when someone is speaking too quietly in a video. Google’s official support pages states that it helps “reduce jarring differences in volume.”
