How to delete youtube history on ipad without account

Admit it, we all watch videos on YouTube that we don’t want others to know. Be it your family or colleagues; we like to keep it private. To support your privacy, YouTube lets you hide or delete that activity from its history. However, hiding or deleting it makes sense when your kid or loved one is accustomed to using your iPhone, or your Google account is synced with multiple devices. To help you out, we have prepared this guide on how to clear YouTube search and watch history on iPhone and iPad.
