YouTube is the worlds most popular video hosting service, attracting millions daily users.
This is mainly because the service, as well as the mobile software, is very user-friendly and user-friendly.
However, some elements of the interface may still cause your questions.

For example, many users encounter problems when they see a blue dot next to the channel they want.
It means there is a new video on the channel, but sometimes it can occur by mistake.
Lets take a closer look at how this feature works.
What is a blue dot on YouTube?
You may notice that among the many channels, it is said only near some of them.
Blue Dot is available on all platforms in the Desktop version of the YouTube service and the mobile app.
A few fixes can be used in this case, which I will describe a bit below.
How to remove the blue dot on YouTube
Removing the Blue Dot on YouTube is very easy.
you gotta pick the channel and see what videos have appeared on the channel.
You should also understand that you do not need to watch the video to remove the blue dot.
you better pop crack open the channel and see what videos were uploaded last.
Thus you refresh the channel, and the dot should disappear.
However, as I wrote above, this does not always happen.
Why do you see a blue dot if no more new content exists?
You may have trouble seeing new videos in several instances, but the blue dot is still there.
This could be because you dont have your YouTube feed updated yet.
Also, sometimes the blue dot does not disappear because of errors in the internet tool.
If this happens, clearing the cache in your surfing app may help.
it’s possible for you to do this through the options in the Cache and Cookies tab.
These are system errors in YouTube, which will disappear over time.
You have to wait and refresh the page a few times.
What is a red dot on YouTube?
Another interface element that users rarely encounter but confuses many is the red dots on YouTube.
They also appear in front of the channel but have different meanings.
This usually means the channel is temporarily unavailable or in a shadow ban.
You will not be able to remove the red dot.
It will only go away when the channel is unrestricted.
However, users rarely encounter this problem because blocked channels often disappear from the platform and your subscriptions.
