Who can connect to YouTube Music?
Anyone with a YouTube Music Premium or YouTube Premium account can connect to YouTube Music in the car.
I don’t see a way to connect to YouTube Music.
Make sure you have the latest version of the Waymo app. If you have an older version, you won’t be able to connect to YouTube Music through the app or car.
Can anyone in the car pick songs on YouTube Music?
Only the music library of the person who hailed the ride will be able to connect their YouTube Music Premium or YouTube Premium account.
How does YouTube Music work with the ‘Autoplay music’ setting in the app?
If, at the start of a trip, Autoplay music is turned on and YouTube Music is linked, YouTube Music will automatically play in the car.
If Autoplay music is turned off, you will need to start YouTube Music from the in-car screen.
Will my YouTube Music account remain connected for future rides?
Yes, once you connect your YouTube Music account, Waymo remembers it for future trips until you choose to disconnect it.
Will my music keep playing for the next rider after my trip?
No, anything you choose to listen to stops playing at the end of your trip, and the next rider will need to use their own account to play from YouTube Music.
Can I tune the sound coming from the car’s speakers?
Yes! We offer an equalizer where you can adjust the balance and fade, subwoofer, bass, and treble of the car’s speakers.
In the Waymo app: Go to Account then Music then Adjust audio settings to get the equalizer. You can also find it through the settings icon on the bottom right of the Now playing screen.
Can I stream my music from any other platforms?
Yes, in addition to streaming with YouTube Music you can also connect with iHeartRadio and Spotify.
