Are you over 18 but can't view age-restricted videos in the YouTube iOS app?

Hey everyone,

In order to view age-restricted videos, it’s a good idea to verify your age associated with your Google account. You can follow these steps to check your birthday:

1. Sign into Google+ on the desktop.
2. In the left nav bar, hover over Home and click Profile.
3. At the top, click the About tab.
4. Click Edit in the Basic Information section.
5. Verify your birthday and update if necessary.
6. Click Save.

Once you verify your age, sign out of the YouTube iOS app and sign back in. You should now be able to watch age-restricted videos. If your birthday is listed as over 18 years of age on your profile, please check back in a few days (The team is aware of this issue and looking into solutions).

This does not impact accounts belonging to users who have told us they are minors. Learn more about age requirements on Google's accounts.

Thanks,
