With tons of new content being uploaded to YouTube every day, viewers are at no loss for something new to watch. But sometimes you don't want something new, so setting a video to loop over and over again can be a good option.
Looping a video can be helpful if you're learning a new skill from a YouTube tutorial, or if you simply want an ambient video to continuously play in the background at an event.
Here's how to set up the feature on desktop or via the mobile app.

How to loop a YouTube video on the mobile app
YouTube recently added the loop feature to the mobile app. It works for iPhone, iPad, and Android.
1. Open the YouTube app on your device and navigate to the video you want to loop.
2. Tap the screen to reveal the icon of three dots in the top-right corner, then tap the three dots to open the video menu.
3. In the pop-up, select Loop video . Note that the loop option does not appear in the pop-up if the advertisement before your video is still playing - you must wait for the ad to end before you can loop.
To turn off the loop feature, you'd need to repeat this process. You can also loop playlists by going into a video in the playlist you want to loop and setting that video to loop.
