Problems due to YouTube TV and YouTube Premium Accounts use different emails

Shoeless
Community Member

I just bought a Google Nest Home Max but my YouTube TV and YouTube Premium use different gmail addresses. Note that I have the YouTube TV account and my daughter has YouTube Premium Family and I am part of her family.

I just set up the Nest using my gmail that is linked to YouTube Premium but it won't let me link to my other Gmail to watch YouTube TV. Since the device is new I could do a new setup using the gmail linked to my YouTube TV account but I assume I then won't be able to link to my YouTube Premium.

I tried looking for how to change my YouTube TV gmail address so I could have both services under one gmail account but have come up empty to do this.

Any recommendations?

Hi Shoeless,

Can you set up the device with the Google account that has YouTube TV access and then have that account added to your daughters YouTube premium family account?

For questions about YouTube accounts please ask over on their dedicated community forum.
