• We’ve spotted clues within the YouTube Music app that indicate the Now Playing widget could soon be supported on the cover display of Galaxy Z Flip devices.
• The Now Playing widget lets you easily control YouTube Music playback.

Samsung made clamshell foldables stylish and trendy with the Galaxy Z Flip lineup. Devices like the Galaxy Z Flip 6 are mainly intended to be used when open, but they also come with a cover display to facilitate interaction when the phone is folded shut. Thanks to the use of widgets on this cover display (or “Flex Window,” as Samsung likes to call it), users can glean information and carry out basic tasks without needing to open the phone. If you are a fan of the cover display, you’d be glad to learn it could be getting even more useful in the future, as YouTube Music could add support for this cover display for its Now Playing widget.
