Through <strong>YouTube Studio<\/strong>, comments can be turned off for individual videos via both desktop and mobile platforms by accessing the video\u2019s details and selecting \u201cDisable comments\u201d under the Comments and ratings section. For creators seeking to disable comments across all future uploads, this can be done through desktop settings under <strong>Community Defaults<\/strong>, though it won\u2019t affect past videos unless edited manually. Shorts follow a similar disabling process but require the desktop version of Studio, as mobile support is currently limited. While disabling comments helps avoid spam and ensures tighter message control, it may hinder viewer engagement and feedback opportunities, making it crucial for creators to weigh the trade-offs before applying the feature across their channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why You Might Want to Turn Off Comments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several reasons why a creator might prefer to disable comments on a video:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Prevent negativity or harassment<\/strong>: Public-facing content may attract unwanted or hurtful remarks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stay on brand<\/strong>: Avoiding off-topic discussions helps keep your channel message-focused.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Moderation challenges<\/strong>: Large volumes of comments are hard to manage manually.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Content sensitivity<\/strong>: Topics that are controversial or emotionally charged may benefit from limited interaction.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, creators also pause comment sections temporarily especially during a brand campaign or a video\u2019s early exposure phase to shape viewer focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Turn Off Comments via YouTube Studio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Disabling comments is possible both on desktop and mobile, and here\u2019s how to do it across both platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\"

simple steps to turn off comments for a specific video using your desktop:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/studio.youtube.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube Studio<\/a> and log in.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the left menu, click <strong>Content<\/strong> to access your uploaded videos.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hover over the video you want to edit, then click the <strong>pen icon<\/strong> (Details).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down to the <strong>Show More<\/strong> section.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find the <strong>Comments and ratings<\/strong> section.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Disable comments<\/strong> from the dropdown.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hit <strong>Save<\/strong> in the top-right corner.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">On Mobile App<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re using the YouTube Studio app, the process is similarly straightforward:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the <strong>YouTube Studio<\/strong> app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the <strong>Content<\/strong> tab and choose your video.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the <strong>pencil icon<\/strong> to edit video details.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down and tap <strong>More options<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under <strong>Comments<\/strong>, select <strong>Disable comments<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap <strong>Save<\/strong> to confirm the change.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Disable Comments for Your Entire Channel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to prevent comments on all future uploads:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open <strong>YouTube Studio<\/strong> on desktop.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to <strong>Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Community<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Defaults<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under \u201cComments on your channel,\u201d select <strong>Disable comments<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click <strong>Save<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This setting applies to <strong>all new videos<\/strong> unless individually adjusted. It doesn\u2019t affect older videos retroactively\u2014you\u2019d need to update those manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Turn Comments Back On Later<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve previously disabled comments on a YouTube video but changed your mind, reactivating them is quick:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open <strong>YouTube Studio<\/strong> and go to <strong>Content<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click the <strong>edit icon<\/strong> (pen) on the desired video.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll to <strong>Show More<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under <strong>Comments and ratings<\/strong>, choose <strong>Allow all comments<\/strong> or another preferred option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click <strong>Save<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This applies instantly and allows viewers to start engaging again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should You Turn Off Comments on All Videos?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Turning off comments channel-wide might reduce moderation workload, but it can also limit community growth. Before disabling them globally, consider these:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pros<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Avoid spam or toxic behavior.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Full control over your brand image.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Useful for videos not meant for interaction (e.g., announcements).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cons<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Reduces engagement metrics like watch time and shares.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Viewers may feel unheard or disconnected.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No feedback loop for improvement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>YouTube comments often boost audience engagement organically, especially when viewers feel encouraged to respond, debate, or share opinions. If you&#8217;re aiming to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.famety.net\/buy-youtube-comments\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">increase video interaction<\/a>, enabling and managing comments effectively is key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Turn Off Comments on YouTube Shorts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Disabling comments on Shorts follows a similar path but is slightly more limited:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to <strong>YouTube Studio<\/strong>, find your Short under <strong>Content<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click <strong>Details<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Show More<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll to <strong>Comments and ratings<\/strong>, then choose <strong>Disable comments<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Save changes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: The YouTube mobile app doesn\u2019t currently allow comment settings edits for Shorts. This must be done via the web-based Studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Table: Comment Settings Comparison Across Platforms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Feature<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>YouTube Studio (Desktop)<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>YouTube Studio App<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>YouTube Shorts<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Disable comments on video<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><td>\u2705 (web only)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Enable\/disable for entire channel<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><td>\u274c<\/td><td>\u274c<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Re-enable comments<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><td>\u2705 (web only)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Advanced moderation tools<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><td>Limited<\/td><td>\u274c<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Turning Off YouTube Comments Prevent You From Getting More Views?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Turning off comments on a YouTube video does not directly prevent your video from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.famety.net\/buy-youtube-views\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">getting views<\/a>, but it can indirectly affect overall performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On YouTube, comments are not a direct ranking factor for impressions or recommendations. However, they play an important role in user engagement signals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Comments contribute to how viewers interact with a video, which can impact distribution over time:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Higher engagement signals: Videos with active discussions often keep viewers on the platform longer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Community interaction: Comments encourage return visits and repeat views.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Algorithmic feedback: Likes, replies, and comment activity help indicate viewer interest, even though comments alone do not boost rankings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When comments are disabled, these interaction opportunities are reduced, which may slightly limit organic growth, especially for discussion-driven content.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t\t<div id=\"daexthefu-container\"\r\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"daexthefu-container daexthefu-layout-side-by-side daexthefu-alignment-left\"\r\n\t\t\t\tdata-post-id=\"40469\">\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-feedback\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-text\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"daexthefu-title\">Was this helpful?<\/h3>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-buttons-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-buttons\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-yes daexthefu-button daexthefu-button-type-text\" data-value=\"1\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-button-text\">Yes<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-no daexthefu-button daexthefu-button-type-text\" data-value=\"0\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-button-text\">No<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-comment\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-comment-top-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<label id=\"daexthefu-comment-label\" class=\"daexthefu-comment-label\"><\/label>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-comment-character-counter-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"daexthefu-comment-character-counter-number\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"daexthefu-comment-character-counter-number\"><\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-comment-character-counter-text\"><\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<textarea id=\"daexthefu-comment-textarea\" class=\"daexthefu-comment-textarea\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tplaceholder=\"Type your message\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tmaxlength=\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t400\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"><\/textarea>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-comment-buttons-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"daexthefu-comment-submit daexthefu-button\">Submit<\/button>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"daexthefu-comment-cancel daexthefu-button\">Cancel<\/button>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"daexthefu-successful-submission-text\">Thanks for your feedback!<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YouTube gives creators full control over the comment sections of their videos, allowing them to disable comments to prevent harassment, maintain brand tone, manage overwhelming volumes, or protect sensitive content.
