Finding YouTube watch list

[Rgarner]

How do I find a history of watched videos on YouTube? I've looked just about everywhere I could with no luck. Why don't they just have it out in the open?

It seems like you can't review that from Android phones but you can definitely clear it by tapping on your profile picture > Settings > History & privacy > Clear watch history.

That's good to know but I want to find it, not clear it. There's gotta be a way. Why does Google make it that hard to use their stuff?

Sure you can.

Open the Youtube app and then in the lower right corner tap on "Library". History is first on the list.

That worked! Thanks "Moderati ergo sum"

Is there a way to sort it by date?

On the comp, go to settings > history and make a play list, that way your videos will be saved.

I guess you mean PC. That would probably work, but why couldn't it be done by phone? Also, does it matter if there's no Internet connection? I bet that makes a difference.

Well you can't log into your account without online access, Youtube is after all a primarily online streaming service.
Regarding 'making a difference', unless you're logging into a different account on your PC, as long as you are accessing the same account on both your PC and your phone it's the same subscriptions, same history, same liked vids, same purchases, etc.
