You can only use these methods in a browser, so you can't do it without leaving the app.

Question

How do I bypass age restrictions on YouTube videos if there is no URL on mobile?

Community Answer

Usually there is a "copy URL" or "Share" option in the mobile apps without URL. Copy it and do the steps above on a phone browser.

Question

Will this work on mobile?

Community Answer

Most of the methods listed in this article work best on a desktop computer or with the browser version of YouTube. Unfortunately, many of the third-party YouTube clients that used to work for bypassing age restrictions, like the NewPipe app for Android devices, no longer reliably work for this purpose.

Why am I unable to watch age-restricted videos on YouTube without signing in?

Community Answer

You can't watch age-restricted videos without signing in because YouTube needs to verify your age, which is provided when you create an account.

Your account might be managed by an organization, like your employer or school, which may have restrictions in place that block certain videos.
