Playlists let you save collections of videos for later watching. You can create playlists from the dashboard or from any video page.

On the free plan you can still use the play queue to line up videos for one sitting.

2. Click the Create button in the "My Playlists" section
3. Enter a name and optional description
4. Choose visibility: Private (default), Shared, or Public
5. Click Create

From a video page

1. On any video page, click the Add to playlist button (the + icon)
2. Select "Create new playlist"
3. Fill in the details and click Create
4. The current video is automatically added to your new playlist

Playlist limits by plan

Each playlist can hold up to 500 videos.

Adding videos to a playlist

From any video page:

1. Click the Add to playlist button (the + icon)
2. Select an existing playlist from the dropdown
3. The video is added, a confirmation toast appears

Duplicate videos are automatically skipped (no duplicates within a playlist).

Add videos from the playlist editor

Open a playlist (Playlists tab → click a playlist) and use the search bar at the top:

• Paste a video link to add that one video.
• Paste a playlist link (youtube.com/playlist?list=...) to add every video in it.
• Tap Surprise me to drop a random Discover pick into the box, then press Add.

You can also paste a playlist link into the header search bar on any page, pressing Enter loads the whole playlist into your queue and starts playing.
