Connect YouTube
Sign in with the Google account that owns your channel. EverySqueeze reads your videos and uploads the ones you post to YouTube.
Press Connect YouTube on the YouTube card in Settings → Accounts & platforms. You sign in with the Google account that owns the channel — EverySqueeze never sees your Google password.
Connecting asks Google for two permissions: reading your channel's videos, so EverySqueeze can match your uploads into Coverage, and managing your videos. EverySqueeze uses the second to upload the videos you post, or auto-post, to YouTube, and to add your Amazon link to a description when you turn that on. Nothing goes to YouTube unless you post it or turn on YouTube's Auto-post new TikToks switch.
Tick every box on Google's permission screen. If the managing permission is left unticked, the connection can read your videos but cannot upload, and the YouTube card in Settings shows Reconnect YouTube instead of Connected. See Reconnect YouTube to allow uploads.
EverySqueeze checks that Google returned a YouTube channel and that its connection can renew before saving it. A Google sign-in alone does not prove that a channel is available, so Google can list EverySqueeze in your Google account while YouTube still shows as not connected here. If a check fails before saving, nothing is changed and the previous connection is kept.
If YouTube didn't connect
When a connection doesn't go through, the YouTube card in Settings (on a computer) or a note at the top of Settings (on your phone) says what happened and what to do, with Connect YouTube again right under it:
- That Google account has no YouTube channel. You signed in with a Google account that doesn't own your channel. Many channels belong to a Brand Account: when Google shows a list of accounts or channels, pick the one your channel is on.
- A permission was unticked on Google's screen. Connect again and tick both boxes. If only the managing box was unticked, YouTube still connects but can't post; see Reconnect YouTube to allow uploads.
- That took too long, or it was opened in another browser. Start Connect YouTube from the page you are on and finish Google's screens in that same window. Starting more than once (several tabs) also does this: close the extra tabs first.
- Google's screen was closed or canceled, or Google blocked this account (school and work accounts are often locked by their admin): connect again with the Google account that owns your channel.
- Google didn't accept that sign-in: this can happen after a reload or the Back button during sign-in. Connect again and go straight through.
- YouTube is busy or its daily limit for EverySqueeze is used up: wait the time the note says, then connect again.
- This YouTube channel is already connected to another EverySqueeze account: a channel can be connected to one account. Disconnect it there first, or connect a different channel.
- YouTube didn't confirm your channel or YouTube connections aren't available: wait a minute and connect again. If the note says the save couldn't be confirmed, reload Settings first: YouTube may already show as connected. If it keeps happening, use Report a problem in Pip; each failed attempt is recorded for support.
Once connected, the Auto-post switch and daily limit for YouTube live in Settings, and the description template (with your Amazon link position) has its own section.
If YouTube stops working, Settings shows Reconnect — see Reconnect a platform. To remove the connection and its stored data, see Disconnect a platform.
