There are several options available, including Merging, Unlisting, and Private. To delete a playlist, follow the steps outlined in this article. Once you&#8217;ve deleted it, the process is quite simple. Just visit the playlist&#8217;s details page and follow the instructions. To keep your favorite videos safe, you should merge and\/or delete playlists only if you&#8217;ve deleted them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Merge_playlists\"><\/span>Merge playlists<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have created more than one YouTube playlist, you may be wondering how to merge them. The good news is that YouTube has a feature that will let you do just that. By merging your playlists, you can create one with multiple videos and share it with other creators. This method also works if you have videos that aren&#8217;t available in the same playlist as yours. You can then share these videos with others, or delete them altogether.<\/p>\n<p>To merge playlists on YouTube, you&#8217;ll need to log in to your YouTube account. Once you&#8217;ve done that, click on the &#8220;New Playlist&#8221; option in the top menu bar. You&#8217;ll then be prompted to name your playlist and provide a short description. You can also use the &#8220;URL trick&#8221; described by Digital Inspiration to merge playlists without creating an account. You&#8217;ll need the video ID of each video to do this.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_playlists\"><\/span>Delete playlists<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have a subscription, you can easily delete your playlists from YouTube. In order to delete a playlist, click the three dots in the upper-left corner of your screen. This will open the Library section. Select Playlists. Click Delete Playlist to confirm the action. Once you confirm the process, you will be able to delete any playlists that you&#8217;ve created. However, deleting a playlist from YouTube will not restore it.<\/p>\n<p>The first step is to open the YouTube app. You will see a number of different icons at the bottom of your screen. Hover over the library icon to see options and click Delete. Tap Delete to remove the playlist. Note that you cannot delete a playlist that has linked videos. Instead, select a playlist from the library and tap Delete. Once you do, you&#8217;ll be able to see all of your playlists in one place.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_unlisted_playlists\"><\/span>Delete unlisted playlists<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One way to delete unlisted playlists on YouTube is to make them private. The new policy on YouTube makes it possible to hide unlisted videos from search results, but they are still visible on playlists and links. YouTube has recently updated its unlisted video link structure, making it harder to find older unlisted videos. Unlisted videos will no longer be visible in search results, but they will be accessible to subscribers who subscribe to your channel.<\/p>\n<p>To delete an unlisted playlist, tap on the three dots on the left side of your screen. The &#8220;Delete&#8221; option will be next to the &#8220;Playlist Settings&#8221; section. In the Delete Unlisted Playlist dialog, confirm your decision. You can then click &#8220;Delete&#8221; to remove the playlist from your YouTube account. Once you have confirmed the deletion, click &#8220;OK.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_private_playlists\"><\/span>Delete private playlists<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How do I delete a private playlist on YouTube? There are a few ways you can do this. Using modern web browsers, you can access YouTube on your computer. First, sign in to your account. You&#8217;ll then see a tab for &#8220;Playlists&#8221; that looks like a hamburger icon. Tap this to open the quick-access bar that includes your playlists, subscriptions, and more. You can also use the Library icon to see your playlists in full.<\/p>\n<p>To delete a private playlist on YouTube, you&#8217;ll need to log in to your account. If you haven&#8217;t yet, sign in to your YouTube account. Then, select your channel. Then, tap the Library tab. Tap the arrow icon in the lower right corner. Click the Edit link on the Edit Profile page. Once you&#8217;ve completed this, tap the Delete Private Playlist button at the top-right corner of the screen.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_public_playlists\"><\/span>Delete public playlists<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can delete public YouTube playlists for a number of reasons. Learn how to do so from your phone or computer. You can also use your Google Play Store account to delete your YouTube playlists. Just remember that there are several steps involved. We&#8217;ll cover a few of them below. Here are a few simple steps to delete public YouTube playlists:<\/p>\n<p>First of all, you must decide what kind of playlist you want to remove. If you don&#8217;t want other people to see your videos, you can use a private playlist for yours. Alternatively, you can create a playlist of videos that you love. A playlist can include everything from your favorite songs to your favorite cooking tutorial.
