If so, you can disable it on your phone by uninstalling the YouTube application and restarting your phone. Then, open up the app again and follow the instructions provided on the screen to turn off restricted mode. If you can&#8217;t figure out the steps for uninstalling the YouTube app, you may need to perform troubleshooting. This article will walk you through the process of turning off restricted mode on your phone.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Troubleshoot\"><\/span>Troubleshoot<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re having trouble watching videos on YouTube, you may have encountered the problem of restricted mode. Fortunately, there are several solutions to the problem. One way to fix this is to uninstall the YouTube app from your computer. Android users can find YouTube in the Play Store by searching for it. Then, select &#8220;Uninstall&#8221; from the menu. After that, you can reinstall the app and start watching videos again. For Firefox users, you can disable the extension by clicking the trash can icon at the top right corner of your browser.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, YouTube&#8217;s restricted mode is caused by network administrator limitations and other issues. In these situations, you should work through each cause one at a time. Once you&#8217;ve exhausted all the causes, you should be able to unlock the content on YouTube. In any case, you may be able to change the settings of restricted mode on YouTube as well. If you can&#8217;t change the settings in your browser, you can try disabling browser add-ons.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turn_off_parental_controls\"><\/span>Turn off parental controls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>YouTube&#8217;s Restricted Mode is a powerful way to keep your children safe from inappropriate video content. This setting lets you block videos with explicit content and also limits comments on videos. You can enable or disable the restrictions with ease. If you are using a public computer, check with the system administrator if you want to enable Restricted Mode. You can also create a Google account for your child with Family Link and supervise their activities on YouTube.<\/p>\n<p>You can turn off Restricted Mode if you don&#8217;t want your children to see videos or comments. Restricted Mode works on both a browser level and a device level, which means you need to turn it on for each one. If your child has more than one profile on the same device, they&#8217;ll have to disable Restricted Mode for each of them. Make sure to explain this to them so they won&#8217;t accidentally view something they shouldn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turn_off_restricted_mode\"><\/span>Turn off restricted mode<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To turn off restricted mode in YouTube, you will need to do so for all your devices. You can view a list of users who have subscribed to your channel in your channel settings. To enable restricted mode, you should log in to the Google Admin console and choose the appropriate permission level for the videos you want to block. YouTube will not display the video in search results unless it is approved. If you want to allow your subscribers to view your video, you should send the link directly.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on your network settings, you may not be able to change the setting for your organization&#8217;s YouTube account. If this is the case, you can contact your network administrator to disable restricted mode. Alternatively, you can use a personal device and log in with a personal Google account. However, you should avoid turning off restricted mode in your organization&#8217;s account if you have a child who is in school.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turn_off_restricted_mode_on_your_phone\"><\/span>Turn off restricted mode on your phone<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been wondering how to turn off restricted mode in YouTube on your phone, it&#8217;s actually easy. First, open the Google Play Store app on your phone and sign in with your Google account. Tap on the profile icon on the top-right corner of the screen. Click the General tab and select the Restricted Mode toggle. The icon will be highlighted in blue. After that, click OK and tap Done to save your changes.<\/p>\n<p>To turn off restricted mode in YouTube on your phone, make sure you&#8217;re signed into your Google account. The process is very similar to the desktop version, so long as you know your account password. Go to the YouTube app&#8217;s profile page and tap on your profile picture. You&#8217;ll then see various options. From there, you&#8217;ll need to disable the toggle next to Activate Restricted Mode.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turn_off_restricted_mode_on_your_computer\"><\/span>Turn off restricted mode on your computer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How to turn off Restricted Mode on YouTube on your computer is simple. First, launch the YouTube web browser in your browser. Click the profile icon in the upper right corner. Scroll down and click on Restricted Mode. If the slider is blue, it is active. Click the button again to turn off Restricted Mode. Note: You cannot disable Restricted Mode on your family link account or other entity-controlled account.<\/p>\n<p>If you are trying to watch a video that contains mature content on YouTube, you may be prompted with an error message. You may need to contact your parent to turn off Restricted Mode on your computer. If you use a network-hosted computer, you should stay logged in to your account. Otherwise, you might not be able to access Restricted Mode on your computer at all. If you are using an iPad or Mac, you must contact your parent to disable Restricted Mode on that device.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Disable Restricted Mode in YouTube on Your Phone Are you having trouble with YouTube&#8217;s restricted mode?
