YouTube is indeed one of the most common video streaming platforms on the web. With the YouTube auto translate feature, people are able to watch any video they want in any language they desire. And they can then comment in any language as well. Content creators and other people who are not native to that language can’t really understand it and want to translate YouTube comments.

Part 1: How to Translate YouTube Comments on Mobile

If you want to translate all the YouTube comments while using YouTube on your mobile device, it’s better to change the app language from settings. That way, all the comments would appear translated in the language you chose. Here’s how to do it:

  • Open YouTube app on your computer and then go tap on your profile screen. Open Settings.

  • Tap on General and look for the option of App language. Choose the language you want, and all the YouTube comments will be changed to that language.
