How to Check If YouTube Unsubscribed You – Step by Step Guide

Have you ever wondered if YouTube secretly unsubscribed you from your favorite channels? Many users don’t notice until they miss important videos. Here’s how to check if you’ve lost YouTube subscriptions and what to do about it.

Method 1: Check Your Subscription Count

The quickest way to detect lost subscriptions:

1. Open YouTube and click on “Subscriptions” in the left menu
2. Scroll to the bottom and click “Manage”
3. Note your total subscription count
4. Check this number regularly – if it decreases without your action, you’ve been unsubscribed

Method 2: Look for Missing Channels in Your Feed

If you haven’t seen videos from a channel you love in a while:

1. Search for the channel directly
2. Visit their channel page
3. Check if the “Subscribed” button shows you’re still subscribed
4. If it says “Subscribe” instead, you’ve been unsubscribed

Method 3: Export Your Subscription List

Create a backup to compare over time:

1. Go to Google Takeout (takeout.google.com)
2. Select only “YouTube and YouTube Music”
3. Under “All YouTube data included”, select “Subscriptions”
4. Export and save the file
5. Compare with future exports to detect changes

Method 4: Use Re-Sub Extension (Recommended)

The easiest and most reliable method is to use Re-Sub, a browser extension that:
