How Can Your Friends View The YouTube Link On Snapchat?
Your friends or followers will be able to simply access your Snap once you’ve sent it to them with the YouTube video link included in it. They can either hit the More button, or they will immediately notice the link at the bottom of your Snap (3 dots icon at the top right corner of the snap).
If there isn’t one, they must swipe up, much like they would for links on Instagram stories. They can simply tap on the link to launch your YouTube video after it becomes accessible as a result. Because it depends on the kind of device the receiver is using, we are unable to specify which of these options will specifically appear on the receiving screens.
Your friends can now tap on the sticker to view the video. Once they tap on the link, the video will open on the YouTube app or the browser.
Wasn’t it easy to learn how to share YouTube videos on Snapchat? If you are unable to share YT videos on your Snap, then you need to update the app with the latest version from the App Store or Play Store.
