YouTube Premium is a paid membership that amplifies your experience on YouTube. Learn more about Premium benefits below, or browse Premium membership offerings.
Watch videos without ads
With YouTube Premium, you can watch millions of videos without interruptions by ads before and during a video, including video overlay ads. You will also not see third-party banner ads and search ads.
You may still see branding or promotions embedded in the content by the creator and promotional links, shelves and features in and around the content that are added or enabled by the creator. These links, shelves and features could be for their website, merchandise, a membership to their channel, event tickets, or other related destinations they are promoting.
Ad-free videos are supported across all devices and platforms where you can sign in with your Google Account—including on compatible smart TVs/gaming consoles and the YouTube, YouTube Music, and YouTube Kids mobile apps, if they're available in your location.
YouTube Music Premium offers a similar experience, allowing you to enjoy music content in the YouTube Music app without ads.
Picture-in-picture (PiP) lets you watch videos while using other apps on your mobile device.
Availability:
• Premium users (Android/iOS): Long-form videos (and Shorts on Android).
• Ad-supported users in the US: Long-form videos (excluding certain content like music videos).
Set up videos to watch next without interrupting the video you’re watching. Queuing on mobile devices and tablets is only available with YouTube Premium.
Available on: YouTube Premium
With YouTube Premium, you can watch videos in 1080p Premium.
1080p Premium is an enhanced bitrate version of 1080p. An enhanced bitrate provides more information per pixel, resulting in a higher quality viewing experience. Videos are only eligible for an enhanced bitrate if they were uploaded in 1080p. You won’t find the 1080p Premium option for:
• Live Streams
• Shorts
• Videos uploaded at resolutions higher or lower than 1080p
To give you the best viewing experience, YouTube changes the quality of your video stream based on your viewing conditions. If you have a Premium membership, your resolution may automatically set to 1080p Premium. You can update your quality settings within the YouTube App.
Badges linked to Premium tenure reward users for their loyalty, whereas Benefit badges reward users for their loyalty. You can earn badges with a longer tenure and by engaging with your Premium benefits (eg. Afterparty, YouTube Music, Continue Watching). They are currently available to users 18+.
You can find your Premium badges on the Your Premium benefits page on your YouTube account.
To find your Premium badges:
1. Open the YouTube app
2. Go to your homepage
3. Tap on your profile icon
As a YouTube Premium member, you’ll have access to other members-only features, including:
• Afterparties & live chat.
• Smart device integration.
• Smart downloads.
• Co-Watch with Google Meet.
• Special offers and early access to new features.
