Change channel owners & managers

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.

If a channel is linked to a Brand Account, multiple people can manage the channel from their Google Accounts. You don't need a separate username or password to manage YouTube channels with a Brand Account.
