If you need to edit an existing video description:

2. Find your video and click the title or the pencil icon.
3. In the Details view, scroll to the Description box.
4. Make your changes and click Save.

Use line breaks and short sentences to improve readability.

Add timestamps if your video has multiple sections. They help viewers jump around.

Include links to your social media or related videos at the end of the description.
