Find your way around YouTube
After you sign in, the most important features will be available in four tabs:
When you open YouTube in a mobile app or browser, you’ll land on Home
If you’ve already watched music videos, you’ll also see popular content and YouTube Mixes. You can find the Home feed anytime by tapping Home
If you have no significant prior watch history, YouTube features that rely on your watch history to give video recommendations, like recommendations on the YouTube homepage, are removed. For instance, this applies if you are a new user before watching any videos or if you choose to clear and turn off your watch history.
The Trending tab lets you discover what's trending on YouTube. It features a broad range of videos that are popular right now. You can scroll through videos or select a specific category (such as music or gaming) to view videos on that subject.
The Subscriptions tab will only show videos from the channels you’re subscribed to. Those channels will also be listed at the top of the page. Tapping the channel artwork will take you to that channel.
The Library tab is home to your watch history, playlists, uploads, and purchases.
