Similar to how Recap works on YouTube Music, YouTube Recap will highlight your various interests through a variety of cards. There are 12 cards in total that shine a spotlight on a variety of trends, including your top channels, viewing habits, and the personality type you fall into, among others. For example, if you listened to a lot of music, your top songs and artists will be included in your Recap.
As mentioned earlier, your Recap will assign you a personality type based on your habits. There are 14 personality types altogether, these include:
- The Adventurer: You’re drawn to content that takes you on an exciting journey.
- The Challenger: You’re drawn to content that shows competition and rising to the challenge.
- The Changemaker: You’re drawn to content that inspires positive change in the world.
- The Connector: You’re drawn to content that sparks conversation and builds community.
- The Creative Spirit: You’re drawn to content that inspires self-expression.
- The Curious Mind: You’re drawn to educational content that helps you understand the world.
- The Dreamer: You’re drawn to content that fuels your imagination.
- The Philosopher: You’re drawn to content that explores the deeper meaning of things.
- The Self-Improver: You’re drawn to content that helps you grow and reach your potential.
- The Serenity Seeker: You’re drawn to content that helps you relax and find your inner peace.
- The Skill Builder: You’re drawn to content that helps you develop skills.
- The Sunshiner: You’re drawn to content that spreads positivity and good vibes.
- The Trailblazer: You’re drawn to content that’s original and challenges the norm.
- The Wonder Seeker: You’re drawn to awe-inspiring content that shows extraordinary skills.
How to get your YouTube Recap
You’ll need to be eligible to receive a YouTube Recap. According to YouTube’s support page, this requires enough watch history from January through late October. If your watch history is paused or you have auto-delete turned on, you won’t get a Recap. Additionally, you’ll need to be 13 or older, signed into your account, have Android version 18.43 or newer or iPhone version 18.43 or newer, and live in one of the over 185 countries where Recap is available.
If you meet those requirements, you should be able to access your Recap on either your mobile device or computer. It can be found on the YouTube homepage or under the “You” tab.
YouTube Recap is available starting today, if you live in North America. For the rest of the world, this feature will be rolling out later this week.
