Hi! I want one of my gmail accounts to be the default so when I open gmail that is the logged in one, but I want to remain logged in into YouTube when I open it from my OTHER gmail account. Is this possible? If yes, do you know how to do this?

Hello sir.
I Want to ask if I can change my default account in to my brand account in youtube. I was monitized more than a month now but ther is no ads in my vids. The problem was, when I am in yt studio and click the google account, the default account would appear and not the brand account that correspond to my channel. My email used when I created my channel was a non-gmail and had accessed with google+. But google+ has been shut down and I couldn't recover my password on that non-gmail account.

Ya but when you switch accounts do you still keep your YouTube Channel

I wanna change my gmail account email without losing my YouTube Channel. I really don't wanna lose my YouTube Channel

I don't understand why Google doesn't let you change your email address. You have to create a whole new account just to change it. Its so stupid

I worked hard to get my YouTube channel the way it is and to have to lose my whole channel. I wouldn't be happy about that

It would help if the title contained if this is for windows or android so we could know if or not to watch...saves some of us a bit of time. Thanks.

Edit: No sign out option using Android. Clicked around a bit, and nothing. Guess the tutorial is not for Android
