and generate traffic, leads and sales on autopilot, hit the Subscribe button and click the bell
notification icon, so you'll be notified whenever I upload new content. If you're watching or
browsing a video on YouTube and want to watch it later, hover over the video at the top.
You can watch later, add it to a queue. If you click on the three dots under the video,
you have these options, Add to queue, Save to watch later, Save to playlist, Not interested,
Don't recommend channel, Report. I'm going to hover over the top here, it says,
"Watch later." Now, it's saved to my Watch later playlist. If I click on the Watch later
playlist, you can see that the video has been added to the bottom of the playlist. This
is a private playlist created by YouTube. You can see the lock icon here with Private
next to it. You can shuffle the videos by clicking on the left here and you just drag
it and drop it where you want it. If you bring it to the top, then the thumbnail changes
at the top. If I click on the three dots to the right,
I can add it to a queue, save it to a different playlist, remove it from the watch later playlist,
move to the top or move to the bottom. If I click Move to bottom, then it's moved to
the bottom here. If I click on the three dots again, click Move to top, then it's put to
the top. If I click on the three dots, click Add to queue, then it plays in a little mini-player
down the bottom of my page. Now if I click the X, then you get a little popup saying
the queue will be cleared. Are you sure you want to close the player? Close player.
Here's how to create a new playlist from the watch later playlist videos. Select video,
click three dots, click Save to playlist. I'm going to uncheck Watch later. I can add
it to any of my current playlists or I can create a new playlist. I click Create new
playlist, give it a name. I'll just call it Fitness for the purposes of this video, then
I can select my privacy here. I'm going to just make it private so it's only available
to me, so nobody else can watch it, then click Create.
If I go to me left-hand column here, I can now see my new playlist called Fitness. Click
on that and I can see my Fitness playlist. These are all videos in a private playlist
that are now only available to me but not available to the public. How do you add videos
to a private playlist you've created? Select the video you wish to add, click the three
dots, click Save to playlist. Here I've got my fitness playlist so I can just add it to
that or I can create a new playlist. That's all there is to it.
How do you remove videos from the Watch later playlist? Hover over the video, click the
three dots, click Remove from watch later. Let's go back to the YouTube homepage. Here's
another exercise video. I can save it to Watch later playlist or I can click Add to queue.
If you click Add to queue and it plays in a mini-player at the bottom right of the page.
When I click on the X, that says, "The queue will be cleared. Are you sure you want to
close the player?" Click Close player. You can do this for any video you're watching
or browsing on YouTube. Keep in mind that your queue won't save after you've closed
your browser. If you want to continue watching later, just save your video to your Watch
later playlist. Here's another video that I want to add to my private playlist called
Fitness. Just click on the three dots, click Save to playlist, select Fitness, close the
window. Now if I click on Fitness, I now have two videos that are saved to my private playlist
called Fitness. If I click on these three dots, I can collaborate
so collaborators can add videos to this playlist, I can change the playlist settings and allow
embedding, add new videos to the top of the playlist. You can also click Advanced settings
and click Add videos. Go to video search. I can enter URL of a video I want to save
in this playlist or I can select my own YouTube videos. If I search for "knee pain," click
Search. I can select from any of these videos. Two gentle stretches to reduce knee pain.
I just select the video, click Add video. How do you delete your saved playlist? Click
on the three dots, click Delete playlist. "Are you sure you want to delete Fitness from
my saved playlist?" Deleting playlist is a permanent action and cannot be undone, click
Delete. Now you know how to save any video to a watch later playlist, add it to a queue
or create a private playlist. Let me ask you a question. Do you often get videos recommended
