Thanks fir this, how do one compress the large videos without losing quality?

[yogaswing]

Please make a video on “ how to add suggested videos using I phone “ I am searching for long but not finding an easy tutorial on this subject . Hope you make one soon 👍. Thanks in advance 😊

[GGTheCrochetQueen]

Wow this is a lot of information and I'm already lost lol. Will have to watch several times for android.

[lukasfoster]

Just curious, can you upload multiple videos into one, and do a voice over using only your iPhone?

Weldone Sir for the god job. but i have an issue, the video icon isnt there on my youtube App. How do i resolve that?

[FrederickDunn]

Thanks, tried it and AT&T blocks large file uploads. Rural users won't find this viable, so frustrating. Thank you for the presentation though. I need to be able to use the phone wireless network for the upload, our wifi is a non-starter for upload speeds, takes us 14 hours to upload a 1.3 gb file. looking for solutions with faster upload speeds.

Man I just wanna say that these are so helpful

[MoodyaHDRnatureVideos]

Thank you so much😀 I was pulling my hair out because I was shooting in 4K and I thought I was uploading in 4K but YouTube wasn’t processing the 4K version. I was frustrated and your video helped me solve that problem as I didn’t know the App was switched to 1080p by default. So this video was a lifesaver for me. Now when I upload on my iPad it doesn’t say “preparing video” but rather just says “waiting” like my iPhone always does. I must have changed that setting on my phone a long time ago and forgot about that setting once I started uploading from the iPad. Thanks again🙏

[maegachalogic]

Hello! thank you so much for this information! but do I upload again? because I don't see the camera icon on my YT.

[SapnuPuas.]

[brayoohmapetkooh]

I do YouTube from my phone this a great tut for me...

[marythehousemaid]

Thank you 😊 I just uploaded my first video and i was struggling to add thumbnail but after watching this video I just did it so well, no stress

[Clefablestarz]

I was so confused on why I couldn't upload my video I made, turns out cute cut doesn't export if you exit the app.

[princessbuttercup]

Thank you for the information! I want to ask if it's possible to upload videos from my phone using the web browser and not the app.

[AnimalOverland]

Great video…but it doesn’t say how I can browse my iOS device albums to select the video I want to post or at least how to specify the default album that I can select my video from. I have lots of videos in my camera roll but I have put them in albums to make them easier to find. How do I browse my albums from YT app?
