Unsubscribe from YouTube Channels One at a Time

If you have lost interest in a YouTube channel, there are several ways to unsubscribe.

Clicking on one of the channel’s videos and clicking the gray “Subscribe” button to unsubscribe.
Clicking on the channel’s homepage and doing the same process as above.
Going to your Subscriptions page, choosing “Manage,” and unsubscribing to the listing.
Heading to your “Manage” page and running a script to bulk delete all subscriptions.
You probably already know how to unsubscribe YouTube channels one by one, and know that it is very time-consuming. But, did you know you can go to the YouTube subscription manager and see all the channels you are subscribed to?

View Your Existing YouTube Subscriptions List by doing the following:

1. Log in to your YouTube account.
2. Click on Subscriptions.
3. Click on “Manage” in the top-right corner.

You can now scroll through all of your subscriptions here and decide which ones you want to keep watching and which ones you want to get rid of. This method is excellent for YouTube users who are selective about their subscriptions and don’t want to lose all of them.

Because of the confirmation pop-ups, the manual unsubscribe process still requires many clicks depending on the number of channels that you follow. If you want a better solution, try the methods below.

Mass Unsubscribe from All YouTube Channels

The following method allows you to mass-unsubscribe from all the YouTube Channels you follow. Remember that you will need to subscribe again to the ones you still enjoy. It might be a good idea to write down their names and URLs, so you don’t forget about them.

Bulk unsubscribing from YouTube requires you to run a script, but don’t worry, this method was tried, tested, and verified. Plus, you don’t need to install any potentially harmful third-party program on your computer.

Follow these steps to mass unsubscribe:

1. Go to your subscription manager by clicking on “Subscriptions.”
2. Click on “Manage” in the upper-right section.
3. Scroll down to the “bottom” of your subscriptions or find an empty spot on the page. Right-click the empty area (shows cursor, not hand) and select the “Inspect Element” or “Inspect” option.
4. Click on the Console tab, which is the second tab at the top.
5. Scroll to the bottom of the console until you reach the “>” symbol.
6. Copy the code below into the command field and press “Enter.”
