  • Question
    How can I search my subscription list on YouTube?
    Community Answer
    You can't directly search within your subscription list on YouTube. However, you can organize it by "Most Relevant," "New Activity," or alphabetically in the app. In a browser, you can switch between a list or grid view and click "Manage" to remove channels.
