Youtube is spamming my phone
« on: December 24, 2018, 08:25:43 PM »
I keep getting "recommended adds/ videos poping up on my phone from Youtube.
How do I stop this bs?
Is the need enough? Or does the want suffice?

I think you have to turn off all notifications, but the problem is that it's general and not channel specific so you'd not even get 'em for channels you're Sub'd to.

As far as I can tell the recommendations come based on what you've been searching and watching, not channels you've subscribed to , so maybe just erasing search and watch history daily might solve it.

I get them sometimes and it seems to be videos related to what random things I've searched and or watched frequently around that time.
Always lookin' to learn
