Once the world’s most popular video platform, YouTube is trying to regain the ground it has lost over the years, so it is no surprise that changes are starting to appear in its interface.
Making it clear that they want to be more than just an app or website where you can watch videos, the various recent changes, especially in the interface, indicate that Google is going for everything.
The most obvious example of this is the new design that is enabled by default in the accounts of users with YouTube Premium. If you’ve experienced a completely different interface on YouTube overnight, let us tell you that you’re privileged, and this design is only visible to YouTube Premium users.
Although the new look is very intuitive and integrates beautifully with the content YouTube offers, getting used to it can be quite a headache. That’s why we’ve made a step-by-step tutorial on how to disable this new design.
So you can go back to the old YouTube design on PC
This new design is only available on PC, so it only affects users who enjoy the content provided by YouTube for computers on the web. Similarly, we do not know if this is a mistake, since it is an experimental YouTube function, the new design should not be activated by itself.
The first thing you need to do is enter the YouTube website. Once there, you should click on your account, which will be placed in the upper right corner of the screen.
A wide menu will appear with various options, you need to click on “Your Premium Benefits”.
Therefore, you should reach the “Try the new test functions” section.
As a final step, you need to disable the “New Display Page Layout” feature.
Once you disable the option, you will get the old YouTube design on PC again. It is worth mentioning that if this new interface is not enabled by default, you can see what it looks like by following the same steps and activating the function in question (as long as you are a premium user).
