YouTube recently announced newly released updates, along with features that are now being tested among creators. One of them is a new way to interact with subscribers by allowing quizzes in community posts.
Quizzes are the latest type of community post that YouTube introduced, but it is currently only available in beta. “Quizzes introduce a new, interactive way for creators to engage with viewers,” the company said in a recent video update on the Creator Insider channel.
YouTube expects the community post quizzes to also benefit educational channels. Creators can run contests or just fun quiz activities based on their latest content. “Creators in beta can create quizzes the same way as other kinds of community posts,” YouTube added.
Quizzes enter beta and are currently available to “a small number of creators” only. But the test could expand later on depending on the feedback YouTube will receive.
YouTube quizzes on community posts appear to be its closest response to TikTok’s live Q&A, which was introduced last year. While both are designed to let creators interact better with followers, they function quite differently. TikTok’s feature allows creators to communicate with their followers in real time during a live broadcast and when posting regular videos.
Meanwhile, YouTube announced it has also started testing ways to edit an image when posting on the video-sharing platform. The experiment includes the ability to add texts, filters, and stickers to customize photos before sharing them with subscribers. The feature was initially released on Android, but the experiment is now focused on bringing the photo editing functionality to iOS users.
There are a couple of features YouTube launched recently as well. People should now start seeing a dedicated panel for YouTube Shorts content when watching through the homepage of the YouTube app on TVs released in 2019 and later. Users can also easily browse Shorts content when visiting a creator’s channel.
The company also announced that creators can now use 15 to 60 seconds of audio tracks for their Shorts videos. “Additionally, this launch will allow users to sample up to 60 seconds of audio from eligible VODs and Shorts,” YouTube added.
