YouTube Releases Recap Video Highlights

It’s that time of year when companies are rolling out their Spotify Wrapped-like end-of-year recaps, letting users revisit the content they engaged with the most. While YouTube has offered a YouTube Music recap for the past few years, the platform announced that it’s now launching a separate experience for videos watched on the main service. YouTube Recap features up to 12 personalized cards that highlight a user’s top channels, interests, the evolution of their viewing habits, and personality-type assignment based on their watching preferences. For instance, the “Skill Builder” personality type goes to users who are drawn to content that helps develop skills, while “Sunshiners” gravitate toward content that spreads positivity. “Trailblazers” watch content that’s original and challenges the norm. Other personality types include the “Wonder Seeker,” the “Connector,” and the “Dreamer,” among others. Users will also be able to see their top artists and songs of the year, but they can get deeper insights in the YouTube Music app with their annual YouTube Music Recap, which started rolling out last week.
