Who's Watching? Me! The answer is always me!

jakebarnes — Fri, 21 Nov 2025 14:32:19 GMT

Every time I open the YouTube app it starts with the "Who's Watching?" screen.

Overall I recognize this is a minor issue. I live alone. I do not have children. I will never have children because I don't want them. Additionally, there used to be a way to disable this, and that setting does not seem to be available anymore.

Any possibility of getting that back so I don't have to tell you it's me every time, since it will only ever be me?

It's a great reminder of being alone, which is not exactly comforting. Kind of like when the host/es at the restaurant says, "Just one?"

Hi @jakebarnes

Thanks for stopping by the Google Nest community. For further support with YouTube, we recommend posting in the YouTube community where experts can better assist. For what it's worth, I face the same situation as you and wish there was a setting to control this.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! There used to be a setting to bypass it, which makes the current state even worse.
