How do I add a video to YouTube's Watch Later playlist?

YouTube is full of videos, each more interesting than the next. It may happen that the user does not have enough time to consult all the content that interests him. Foresighted, the developers of the platform have thought of everything: they have created a special playlist, accessible directly from the YouTube homepage. Named "Watch Later", this list is ideal for storing videos that you haven't had time to watch yet.




The "Watch Later" playlist is available in the left column of the YouTube homepage. Unlike the waiting list, it allows you to keep your unwatched videos as long as you want. This tutorial shows you how to use this useful tool.
