Every search you made on YouTube, with dates, in one list you can search. Open your Google Takeout file to find when you first looked something up and what you watched next. Free, and nothing is uploaded.
The .zip Google Takeout gives you. JSON and English HTML both work.

Your file stays on this device. Nothing is uploaded.
Ask Google Takeout for your YouTube history. It takes a minute to request.
Google emails you a download link, often within minutes when only history is selected, and the link works for about a week. On an iPhone the .zip lands in the Files app, and Choose file opens it from there.
On a computer, go to youtube.com/feed/history and click Manage all history. To stop saving searches, open the Controls tab and untick Include your searches on YouTube.
Your Takeout file opens on both YouTube pages. Nothing is uploaded.

In the YouTube app, tap your profile photo, Settings, then Manage all history. On a computer, click Manage all history at youtube.com/feed/history. For every search with its date in one list you can search, download your history from Google Takeout and open it here.
Open Manage all history. Delete one search with its X, or choose Delete and pick a date range, which also deletes watch history from those dates. To stop saving searches, untick Include your searches on YouTube under Controls.
No. Your search history is private to your Google account. Anyone with your Takeout file can read it, so treat the file like a private document.
Go to takeout.google.com, click Deselect all, then tick YouTube and YouTube Music. Under All YouTube data included, keep only history, and under Multiple formats set History to JSON. Click Next step, then Create export. Google emails you a link to the .zip, often within minutes when only history is selected.
No. Your browser opens the file on your device, and nothing from it is sent to Tote. To show thumbnails and play videos, the page asks YouTube for them by video ID, and YouTube already has this history. The file is gone when you close the tab or tap Clear file.
Pick JSON under Multiple formats. It has the exact time of every view in any language. Takeout picks HTML unless you change it. HTML works here for English accounts, but its times can be off by an hour, and other languages can't be read.
Save the videos you'd look for again to Tote, and search them by what was said and shown.
