According to UpdateYouTube will start rolling out tabs that separate the Shorts, Live Streams and Long-form Videos tabs. YouTube states that this update is the result from user feedback. This should help users find creator’s content more quickly and easily.
Users will find all short-form videos created by the creators as they search for them in the new Shorts tab. This is also the case if you’re watching their video in the Shorts feed, and you click/tap on their channel, it will take you to their Shorts tab.
The Live tab allows you to view all streams that have been missed, to view those that are scheduled or to catch one that is live.
