YouTube has begun testing a change that removes the Subscriptions tab from the bottom navigation bar on its Android and iOS apps. The tab is now positioned in the top bar on the Home screen, appearing as the second item after Home. This shift follows a decade of the tab’s placement in the bottom bar, dating back to 2017. Alongside the move, YouTube is introducing custom feeds for Live, Music, and Movies & TV, and is redesigning the top bar to feature dedicated feeds. The changes are part of a broader effort to streamline the Home experience and are currently in testing on mobile and desktop for U.S. users.
