Disable or enable Restricted Mode

30/11/2019

✅ Computer

Before you start: Restricted Mode works on the browser or device level, so you must turn it on for each browser you use. If your browser supports multiple profiles, you must enable it for each profile. If you want Restricted Mode to stay enabled for anyone using this browser, you can lock Restricted Mode.

If you aren't able to follow these instructions, you are likely using the old version of YouTube. If you're using a newer browser, update to the current version of YouTube.

Turn Restricted Mode on or off

  1. Go to the account icon . 

  2. Click Restricted Mode.

  3. In the dialog box that appears, toggle restricted mode to on or off.

If you’ve entered your username and password, and Restricted Mode remains on, try contacting your system administrator for additional assistance.

Restricted Mode is an optional setting that you can use to help screen out potentially mature content that you may prefer not to see or don’t want others in your family to see.

We use many signals—such as video title, description, metadata, Community Guidelines reviews, and age-restrictions—to identify and filter out potentially mature content. Restricted Mode is available in all languages, but due to differences in cultural norms and sensitivities, the quality may vary.

When restricted mode is enabled, you will not be able to see comments on the videos you watch.
