This article will show you how to remove the restriction in your Google account. The steps in this article are different for each platform, but they all require that you sign in on the same account. To change age restrictions, you must click on the profile icon on the top right corner of your screen in the browser version of YouTube. Next, click on &#8220;Change your date of birth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turn_off_and_remove_age_restriction_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Turn off and remove age restriction on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several ways to bypass YouTube&#8217;s age restriction. Some methods involve changing your browser settings, while others rely on URL changes. For this purpose, you must first be logged in to your Google account. Then, find your account picture in the upper-right corner. Tap it to access the settings menu. Tap &#8220;Age&#8221; and select the appropriate option for your browser. Once you have chosen the appropriate option, you will no longer see the restriction.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have a Google account yet, you can also use a browser to bypass YouTube&#8217;s age restriction. To do this, go to the profile icon in the top-right corner of the screen. Once there, tap on &#8220;General&#8221; and click on &#8220;Remove Restricted Mode.&#8221; Once you&#8217;ve done that, you can access YouTube without age restrictions. This method applies to both browsers and devices.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Changing_your_date_of_birth_in_your_Google_account\"><\/span>Changing your date of birth in your Google account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Changing your age on YouTube is easy, but you may need to get permission from your parents in order to view the video content. Fortunately, there are a few easy steps that you can take. First, sign in to your Google account. This is usually available in the upper right corner of your browser. Click the profile picture in the top-right corner of your screen to sign in. Then, click &#8220;Birthdate&#8221; to change your birthdate.<\/p>\n<p>Changing your date of birth in your Google accounts is quick and easy, and it is completely free! All you need is a Google account and a valid date of birth. The date of birth is used to validate your age and ensure that you are not using an account that is meant for a minor. However, you may not be able to change the date of birth, and you may be unable to access certain features on YouTube.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_a_proxy_site_to_view_age-restricted_YouTube_videos\"><\/span>Using a proxy site to view age-restricted YouTube videos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several ways to bypass YouTube&#8217;s age restrictions, but the most common way is to use a proxy site. While proxy sites are safer than other options, they are still not completely safe. You should only use these methods at your own risk. Here&#8217;s a quick guide to how to use a proxy site to view age-restricted YouTube videos. Once you&#8217;ve found a proxy site, open the video you want to view and copy the URL.<\/p>\n<p>First, install VLC. Then, select the &#8220;New stream&#8221; option. Paste the URL of the age-restricted video into the address bar and tap the right arrow icon. The video will automatically start. The proxy website allows you to stream age-restricted content, but you need to be careful because it can leak personal information and passwords. To prevent this, you should use an encrypted proxy service. Proxy sites such as NordVPN, ProxySite, and Stop Censoring Me offer secure VPN and encrypted proxies.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Changing_your_age_in_your_Google_account\"><\/span>Changing your age in your Google account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Changing your age in your Google account is easy. First, open your Google account and click on your photo. If you do not have a picture of yourself, click on the little man icon to get started. Then, go to the Personal information section. Select Birthday. Under the current date, click on the pencil icon next to your birthdate. Next, click on the year you want to change. Then, click Save. Your age will now be associated with your Google and YouTube accounts.<\/p>\n<p>Changing your age in your Google account is possible through Family Link, an app available for Android and iOS. To change your age, go to Settings, then to Edit profile. You should be at least thirteen years old. You can change your age as many times as you want, but you should not do it too often. Tap on Birthdate and enter the correct date. You can then continue with your profile. Changing your age in your Google account is easy.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mHlP0qNXWrg\" width=\"442\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"247\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Change Age Restrictions on YouTube How do you remove age restrictions on YouTube?
