Thank you for joining this session on using YouTube playlists. We explored how playlists can help you organize, save, and share videos that matter to you, whether for learning, entertainment, or keeping track of your favorites.

Key Takeaways and Next Steps

Creating Playlists

You can create a new playlist directly from any video by clicking Save → Create new playlist. Give it a name, choose privacy settings (Public, Unlisted, or Private), and start adding videos.

Managing Playlists

Edit a playlist by renaming it, changing its privacy settings, or deleting videos you no longer want. You can also sort videos by date added, popularity, or manually arrange them in any order.

Sharing and Collaborating

Share playlists using a link if they’re set to Unlisted or Public. You can also allow collaborators (friends or family) to add videos to a playlist you’re building together.

Finding Playlists by Others

Use YouTube’s search and apply the Filter → Playlist option to discover public playlists others have already created. You can save videos from their lists into your own.

Watch Later and Liked Videos

Every account has built-in playlists like Watch Later and Liked Videos to quickly save items you want to revisit.
