How to Subscribe to YouTube via Email

YouTube disabled native email notifications in August 2020. Luckily FeedMail lets you get these notifications back, and they are better than ever!

Why Email Notifications?

At FeedMail were are a huge fan of email notifications!

  • Synced across all of your devices.
  • Easy to sort and filter.
  • Very customizable. You can decide if you want them to buzz your phone, ding your computer, both, or quietly file into a folder for you to check when you have some downtime.
  • One place for all of your updates. No need to remember to log into YouTube, Odysee, Vimeo, PeerTube and Nebula on every device.

Better than Native?

We think so!

  • No need to create a YouTube account.
  • Per-video notifications, no batching to mess up your filters and workflow.
  • You can pick a different email address for each channel for easy filtering. Not everything needs to go to your primary address.

Instructions

  1. Find the channel that you want to subscribe to. If you are watching a video you can get to the channel but clicking the channel logo under the video.
  2. Copy the channel URL. It usually looks like one of the following formats:
  3.  Got to the New Subscription page, paste the channel URL and click "Go".

  1. Select or enter the email address at which you would like to receive notifications then click "Subscribe"


 Note: If you are a new user you will need to confirm your email address before you start to receive notifications.

DNS Outage

From 2024-08-26 19:46 to 2024-08-27 11:21 UTC FeedMail had an outage. Until 2024-06-26 20:34 FeedMail was completely down. For the remainder of the outage most emails not sent. It is expected that no feed updates were lost during this outage. Updates would only be lost if they were only present on the feed within the 50min of total outage. Most feeds ensure that updates are present for days so this would not be an issue. Notifications have been delayed and should be sent by 2024-08-27 12:31. This may take longer if your mail provider applies limits and FeedMail needs to retry delivery at a later time. Update : All delayed notifications have been sent successfully.

Digests Now Respect Category Filters

Due to an oversight category filters did not apply to digests. This has been corrected and future digests will be filtered by your selected categories. If you do not want this filtering to occur please update your filters to "Ignore selected categories" and deselect all categories to inactivate the filter.

Digests are now Supported for Owner-Paid Feeds

Owner-paid feeds allow feed publishers to provide FeedMail to their subscribers at no cost. For example the FeedMail Blog is an owner-paid feed. Up until now digest subscriptions were not covered by owner-paid plans. Subscribers could select a digest but they would have to pay for the subscriptions themselves. Digests are now fully supported under owner-paid plans. For users: The owner-paid feeds in your digests no longer count towards the cost of the digest. For publishers: Users will now be able to receive your feed as a digest or included in one of their existing digests. You will be charged one credit for each digest issue containing items from your feed (no matter how many items from your feed are in that issue). Notably this cost will never be more than real-time subscriptions would be.
