How to find saved playlists on youtube app

Playlists allow YouTube users to organize and save videos for easy access later. If you’ve created playlists or saved playlists created by others, it’s important to know how to find these playlists easily in the YouTube app. Here are the steps to find your saved playlists on the YouTube mobile app:

From Your Library

The easiest way to find your saved playlists is to go to Your Library in the YouTube app. Here’s how:

1. Open the YouTube app on your mobile device.
2. Tap on the Library icon at the bottom of the screen. It looks like a bookshelf.
3. This will take you to the Library tab where all your saved playlists, liked videos, subscriptions and more are organized.
4. Scroll down and tap on “Playlists”. This section shows all the playlists you have created or saved.
5. Tap on a playlist to open it and play the videos.

Your Library makes it simple to access all your saved playlists in one place. Whenever you want to find a playlist you’ve saved, the Library tab is the fastest way to locate it.

Using Search

You can also search for a specific playlist to find it quickly. Here’s how to find saved playlists using Search:

1. Open the YouTube app and tap on the Search icon at the top.
2. Type the name of the playlist you are looking for in the search bar.
3. Scroll down the search results page and look for “Playlists” section.
4. This section will show all matching playlists, including ones you’ve saved.
5. Tap the playlist you were searching for to open it.

Using Search is helpful when you know the name of the playlist but don’t want to browse Your Library. Just a quick search by the name will surface the playlist you want.

Checking Your Playlist Subscriptions

If you have subscribed to playlists created by other channels, you can find these in your playlist subscriptions:

1. Go to Your Library and tap on “Subscriptions”.
2. In the Playlists tab, you will see all the playlists you are subscribed to.
3. Tap on a playlist to open it and view the videos.

Checking your playlist subscriptions is an easy way to access curated playlists from channels you follow without having to visit each channel.

Using Account Settings

You can also find your saved playlists in your YouTube account settings:

1. Tap on your profile picture at the top of the YouTube app.
2. Select “Settings” option.
3. Tap on “Playlists” under Library.
4. This will display all the playlists you have created or saved.

While not the most convenient way, you can always find your playlists in account settings if you are having trouble locating them elsewhere.

Using YouTube Studio App (For Creators)

If you are a YouTube creator and want to manage your own channel’s playlists, use the YouTube Studio app:

1. Open the YouTube Studio app and log into your channel.
2. Tap on “Playlists” option on bottom.
3. Here you can see all public and private playlists for your channel.
4. Tap on a playlist to edit or update it as needed.

The YouTube Studio app is designed for channel management and lets creators easily access their playlists.

Finding Playlists You Made Public

To find playlists you have publicly shared:

1. Open YouTube app and go to your channel page.
2. Tap on “Playlists” below your channel name.
3. This section will display all public playlists on your channel.
4. Tap a playlist to open it or share it.

When you make a playlist public on your channel, this is the easiest way to find it again later.

Searching from Desktop Site

You can also find your saved playlists by searching for them on youtube.com:

1. Go to youtube.com and make sure you are signed into your account.
2. Click on your profile icon and select “Playlists”.
3. You will see all your saved and created playlists here.
4. You can also search for a specific playlist using the search bar.

The YouTube website makes it easy to search your personal playlists and subscriptions.

Using Google Assistant

If you have Google Assistant enabled, you can find playlists through voice commands:

1. Say “Ok Google” or “Hey Google” to activate Assistant.
2. Say a command like “Show me my YouTube playlists” or “Open my workout playlist on YouTube”.
3. The playlist will start playing on your connected device.

Google Assistant provides a hands-free way to access your saved YouTube playlists.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you are having trouble finding a playlist you know you have saved, try these troubleshooting tips:

• Make sure you are signed into the correct YouTube/Google account.
• Double check spelling if searching for the playlist by name.
