Disable any VPNs

If you’re using a VPN, chances are the Youtube site is thinking you’re in another country or region and is using the localised language for that place. Try disabling any VPNs that you’re using and try refreshing the site once.

Changing Youtube language on the Youtube app

There’s no option to change the language on the Youtube phone app as the app relies on your phone’s language. Here’s how you can change that instead.

On Android

• Open your phone settings and head over to System.
• Tap Languages & input.
• Tap on Languages. 

• Tap Add language.
• Select the language you want and you’re good to go.

On iOS

Step 3: Click the pencil icon next to your preferred language. 

Step 4: Select the language of your choice from the list and click the Select button at the bottom. You may also be asked to choose a country in case the language you selected has multiple variants.
