How to Use "Watch Later" on YouTube

When you’re browsing YouTube, you usually come across videos you don’t want to watch right this second, but you can make time for them in the future. Use YouTube’s Watch Later feature to save them all in one playlist.

How to Use Watch Later on the Web
You can think of Watch Later as a designated playlist. It has a special place in the Library tab, and it’s usually easier to add a video to Watch Later than to add it to a playlist.

If you want to use the Watch Later feature as a makeshift queue, where you save videos to Watch Later all day and you come back at night to watch three to four videos together, you’ll have to click on the “See All” button next to Watch Later.
