  • Question
    Can I search my subscription list?
    Community Answer
    There is currently no way to search within your subscribed channels list. However, there are some ways you can organize it (depending on whether you're viewing YouTube through a browser or the app). In the app you can organize the list by Most Relevant, New Activity or alphabetically. In a browser you can change the view from a list or a grid and click "Manage" to remove channels from the list.
