YouTube lets you block other users if you wish. Once we have blocked someone, the person will not be able to comment on the videos we upload or view our content. Before blocking a user, you should be aware that these restrictions are bi-directional. Therefore, you will also no longer have access to that user's channel. YouTube will not let you comment on the user's videos either. It is a measure that aims to safeguard the privacy of users and avoid confrontation.

Blocking a user or a channel is easy by following our steps. You can do this directly from the YouTube app for Android. To start, find the user you want to block using the search engine integrated into the video app.

Did you block the wrong user or channel? Do not worry. In case you have made this by mistake, you can use the Undo button to rectify it. You will find it next to the confirmation message User has been blocked, visible at the bottom of the screen.

From this point on, the restrictions we have mentioned above will apply. If at any time, you change your mind, you can unblock the affected user by performing exactly the same process. This way you can do all those actions again.
