How to Change Your YouTube Password

Originally, if you wanted to change your YouTube password, this could be quite simply done via YouTube settings. But some time ago Google bought the popular video-sharing platform YouTube, so YouTube now uses the same password as your Gmail, Google Docs, and other products on your Google account. 

 

Thus, to change your YouTube password, you need to change the passcode of the Google account, to which the YouTube account is connected. In this guide, we’ll show you how to change your password via the YouTube website. Read on and find out:

 

How to Change YouTube Password

 

1. As it was mentioned above, to change your YouTube password, you need to change the password of your Google account. You can start this process via the YouTube website. For this, click on your profile picture at the top right.

2. Choose the Manage your Google Account option from the drop-down menu that appears.
