How To Loop A YouTube Playlist
Did you know that you can also loop YouTube playlists? Here's how:
On A Mobile Device
Create a new playlist or open an existing one that you want to loop. Play the playlist.
In the playlist control box, tap the Loop icon.
This will make the full playlist loop repeatedly (i.e all videos in the playlist will play through until the end, then start looping from the beginning).
If the playlist control box is hidden, tap the down arrow that appears below the video to open it again.
If you want a specific video within the playlist to loop, tap the Loop icon again until there's a 1 in the center of it.
On Desktop
Open the existing or new playlist you want to loop and click Play.
The playlist control box should appear on the top right corner.
From here, click the Loop icon.
This will make the full playlist loop repeatedly (i.e all videos in the playlist will play through until the end, then start looping from the beginning).
If you want a specific video within the playlist to loop, click the Loop icon again until there's a 1 in the center of it.
Third Party App Options
While YouTube does offer an in-platform loop option, there are a variety of third party websites that can play a video on repeat for you, either on a computer browser or iPhone. To get started you'll need the URL that includes the video ID.
Top options for YouTube video loopers include LoopTube, LoopTube.io, and Looper.tube.
