YouTube is perhaps the biggest video and audio streaming service in the world right now, the Google-owned video streaming service hosts billions of hours of content from millions of creators. YouTube is inarguably the largest library of songs and has a mix of official, unofficial, and personal content. While the service outperforms all the competitors in terms of quality, app design, and overall experience, the YouTube music feature still feels a little half-baked with no proper playlist support and unable to identify duplicate items in the playlist.

While the app does lead in terms of quantity of content, some apprehend that the quality is lost on many occasions. It has been several years since the YouTube Music platform was launched but some of the features and options still feel half-baked and imperfect.

Simple things like removing duplicates from the playlists is a cumbersome process now as the service has stopped alerting users about the duplicates being added while adding a new song to the playlist. If you are facing this issue, then luckily there is a workaround to identify and delete these duplicates easily from the YouTube Music Playlists. While these options do make it possible to delete the duplicates from a playlist on YouTube Music platform, it is something that we would have expected to see as a default feature on the platform.
