YouTube is bringing in a new feature for its Shorts experience, and it is the addition of a voiceover narration feature that will add audio over one's upload for their needs. The voiceover will feature a text-to-speech experience that will also have an AI voice to speak what the users are trying to say, similar to TikTok's features released before.

According to Google Support's announcement, a new feature is coming for the YouTube Shorts experience, and that is the addition of a voiceover narration for their videos. The company encourages the users to create more videos with the new feature and to utilize this for their content creation to help improve their videos. 

Voiceover narration features a text-to-speech experience that centers on a user typing the information that the AI voice will speak on the video. 

It also can put this voiceover atop the video's sounds or chosen background music, further adding depth to the content that they wish to bring to viewers.

YouTube Shorts is Copying TikTok

According to Tech Crunch, this new feature from YouTube Shorts is a direct copy from TikTok and was the first to bring voiceover narration for people to use. Nevertheless, it shows that TikTok is still the leading app for the short video experience.

The new feature is now available via YouTube Shorts, and it helps people say a lot without actually having to use their voice for the video. 

Google's YouTube Shorts

One of the many features coming to YouTube Shorts now is Google's integration of the feature with a machine learning AI that will help in transforming ads to the vertical format of one's video. The feature aims to help get the best display and information from the available materials from advertisers, with Google helping them bring more of what they aim to show.

Google's latest statistics share the massive improvement and growth of YouTube Shorts since it was released last year, particularly as it already has 1.5 billion users who browse the service on a daily basis. 

The YouTube audience gets a significant improvement on their experience of the platform's offers as it centers on a new media format that is more integrated into a device's screen. Smartphones are in the vertical format too and TikTok's introduction of the video experience helped pave the way for a different experience online. 

Now, YouTube Shorts aim to bring a brand new experience for all people's needs, especially with the voiceover narration that the public has requested from the platform for a long time now. This feature is similar to TikTok, which first debuted earlier, but it still gives the public a new option to make their Shorts better with narration.
