YouTube offers many customization options to its users. They vary from privacy settings to profile pictures, to a custom channel description, or even adding channel art. While many users like alerts from their channel or channels they are subscribed, others prefer to keep notifications to a minimum.
To adjust the notification settings on your YouTube account, follow these steps.
Changing notification settings
Go to the YouTube website and click in the upper-right corner (if you’re not already signed in to your YouTube account).
In the upper-right corner of the screen, click the Notifications icon.
In the top-right corner of the window that appears, click the icon.
You should now see a list of toggle switches for your notifications preferences.
Make your selections for the General notifications settings.
Then, scroll down and adjust the toggle switches for e-mail notifications.
When you’re finished, you can click the button in the upper-left corner of the browser window to return to the home page.
