Since a long time, I’m trying to find a way to clear Youtube watch later list as there are times when I do not get time to watch YouTube and have to add videos to watch later playlist. Now, over time it gets bigger and bigger. So, there must be some way to clear it, right? I tried hard to find a solution online but there was none. So, I tried to make one.

Step 1

Go to YouTube watch later playlist and add the first video to a new playlist named the new watchlist. Make sure the ‘new watchlist’ is public so that you could download it with any software or do whatever you deem necessary.

 

Step 2

Now download an old version of Mozilla Firefox (55 or earlier) and old extension of iMacros (8.9.7 preferably).

Step 3

After completing the second step, open the main watchlist through the Firefox browser.

Step 4

Start the following macro in a loop. If your playlist has 20 videos to clear, loop the watchlist macro four times as it clears five videos for instance.
