How To See Your Comments On Youtube App

How to easily find your past YouTube comments and edit or delete them

ipad youtube — You can go back and edit or delete comments that you've left on YouTube videos.

You can easily find your YouTube comments using your phone, tablet, or computer. You can also edit or delete your old YouTube comments in mere seconds.
While you can conveniently find, edit, or delete YouTube comments on mobile, you can't do it via the YouTube app, and have to use your smartphone's browser.
YouTube makes it easy to find every comment you have ever made on videos, so if you're not sure what you said or you want to share a clever quote with someone else, don't hesitate to pull up past comments.

Maybe you now regret rude comment you left on a YouTube video in the midst of a heated debate, or maybe you finally thought of the perfect comeback and want to add to your comment in said debate.

Perhaps you can't remember what you said on YouTube regardless of context, or possibly you're so proud of your YouTube comment you want to find it and share it with others.

In any case, it's easy to find your past YouTube comments, and it's simple to edit or delete them, too.

How to find your YouTube comments

1. On the YouTube homepage, click on the three parallel lines at the top-left corner of the screen, then click the word "History" from the menu that appears.

YouTube makes it easy to see all your past comments as well as check your watch and search history.

2. On the right side of the screen, click the bubble beside the word "Comments."

3. Scroll through your comments and find the comment you wish to edit, delete, or share, and click the three dots next to it. If you wish to delete the comment, you can do it right then and there.

4. To edit the comment, click "Edit" and you will be taken to the video where the comment was posted and you can alter it right there.

Note that an edited comment will have the word "Edited" displayed beside it.
