YouTube Music for Android and iOS finally has the ability to share accurate timestamps.

Here's What We Know

Now, when you want to share an interesting moment from a podcast or song, you can specify the exact time you want to start. All you need to do is click the Share button and select the Start from x:xx option in the upper right corner. As a result, the t=XX parameter is added to the link, and your friend will hear exactly what they need to hear.

This feature will be useful not only for podcasts, but also for songs or concerts when you want to share a certain passage.

Although the new option is already available on Android, iOS, and the web version, the Share menu on Android hasn't yet received the updated style that it has on iOS. Hopefully, this will be fixed in the next update.
