It’s better late than never, but the streaming service has so much left to do. YouTube Music sorting is widely rolling out with version 3.29 on both Android and iOS, but it’s not available on the web client. In an interview with Engadget a few months after launch, Google promised that sorting was “firmly on the roadmap.” It’s unfortunate that the feature took a year for the YouTube team to tackle.

From here, you can now change the title of your playlist, add a description, or change the privacy settings.

Next, click the thumbnail on the playlist you want to edit.

This long overdue and basic feature was first promised last August. To edit a playlist you've created, head over to Playlists from your Library. It’s not available on the Device Files tab of local files. I don't know if you can change others' playlist order by a specific attribute unless you clone it yourself (basically create a manual copy of someone's playlist instead of saving the original playlist) or via third party software, but I know I can help you reverse the order of any playlist you want. Now, go back to Playback Loop and paste the URL in the search bar by pressing CTRL+V and hit Enter or click on the search button. Your choice is specific to a page, and can be independently set. Right-click on the playlist name to copy the link. “Recently added” is the default, but heading to any of those four sections in the Library tab reveals a new dropdown menu. YouTube Music now lets you sort content by alphabetical (A to Z) or reverse alphabetical (Z to A) order. Edit a playlist To remove songs from your playlist, select the ellipsis (three dots) next to the name of the track youd like to delete. Reverse chronological order is a very YouTube and feed-inspired choice, but not one that scales well to large libraries. This included the playlists you’ve created, saved albums, liked songs, and subscribed artists. Since launch, Google’s latest streaming service has arranged your library by recently added. The ability to sort albums and playlists is now finally available on Android and iOS. In addition to lacking major features like a cloud locker and migrating playlists, YouTube Music is still missing basic functionality expected in an audio player.
