How to Disable Comments on YouTube?

How can I turn off comments on YouTube videos? In this guide, I’ll teach you how to disable YouTube comments. I also demonstrate how to disable comments on all of your YouTube videos. Turning off comments on a YouTube video prevents anybody from leaving a remark on that video.

Follow the steps below to disable comments on a posted YouTube video:

Table of Contents

  • Log in to YouTube and find the video with the nefarious remarks.
  • Choose Edit Video. You should be sent to YouTube Studio as a result of this.
  • Scroll to the bottom of the page under Details until you find Comments and ratings.
  • Select your favorite choice from the drop-down marked Comment Visibility. Select Disable comments to turn off comments.
  • Choose Save.
  • Return to Basic and choose the video in question to confirm that comments have been deactivated. You should notice Comments are disabled for this video below the description.

Choose comment settings

In YouTube Studio, you may modify your comment settings. Discover the various comment options.

You can’t alter your comment settings if:

The audience of a channel or video is set to “designed for kids.” Comments are permanently erased 30 days after a channel or video is designated as made for children.
A video is personal. Post an unlisted video instead if you wish to enable comments on a video that isn’t publicly viewable.
You’re using a monitored account to access YouTube. On YouTube, you can learn more about supervised experiences.
