Discovering videos
You can discover YouTube videos in many different ways, including browsing by
category, searching, and by exploring information about a video on its watch screen.
Viewing the channels of people who have uploaded a video you like is also a great way
to discover videos: see “Working with channels” on page 303.
Search for videos
1 Press the Search button when YouTube is running.
You can also press the search icon on the YouTube home screen or press
Menu and touch Search.
2 Enter the text you want to search for, or touch the Microphone icon to search by
voice.
3 Touch a suggestion below the search box or touch the magnifying glass icon
to search for what you’ve entered.
4 Scroll through the search results and touch a video to watch it.
Initially, your search results include every matching video ever uploaded. But you
can limit the results to a more recent period of time by touching All time (or the
current time filter setting) at the top of the search results screen.
You can set whether you want to filter out potentially offensive videos with
SafeSearch. You can also clear your search history, so it is not included in
suggestions when you search YouTube. See “Changing YouTube settings” on
page 304.
Browse for videos by category
1 Press Menu and touch Browse.
2 Touch a category in the scrolling list of YouTube categories (or touch All).
The category screen opens for the category you touched, with a list of videos you
can touch to watch.
You can limit the videos on the category screen to a more or less recent period of
time, by touching the current time filter setting at the top of the category screen.
Touch a tab to view the most viewed, top rated, most discussed, or most favorited
videos in that category.
