Many of you have linked YouTube to your existing Google accounts. Some have reported that they receive an error when they try to log in to their google account, despite being linked to YouTube.
With the recently added ability to “link” your account, YouTube now allows google account holders to rate/comment/subscribe to content without actually having a YouTube channel on their account.
We are working on an update to support these new “linked accounts” that are active on YouTube that do not have a YouTube channel, but, in the meantime – if you would like to login to YouTube using our app – simply add a channel to your account. It’s free, takes only a couple seconds, and it doesn’t mean you have to start uploading videos.
To add a channel to your YouTube-Linked google account, simply visit the Create Channel page on YouTube by clicking here:
Once you add a channel, you can use all of the YouTube specific functionality in our apps without issue.
