A good brand knows their customer, or in this instance, their audiences. Youtube lets you know the number of subscribers of your channel and even gives a nice statistical insight from the channel. Not only that, if you want to know your audiences for some reason, you can pretty much see their name clearly.
To see who is subscribed to you on Youtube, follow these steps!
1. Launch Youtube on a desktop computer (because it’s the only way, Youtube Studio on Android doesn’t show the subscribers name).
2. Tap on your channel profile picture, then select Youtube Studio.
3. The subscribers name will appear under the ‘Recent subscribers’ section. Click See All to expand the name.
4. And here is the list of people who subscribed to you, including the date they are subscribed and even their subscribers count.
5. You may filter them by the last time they are subscribed, from 7 days to 365 days.
One thing you need to know is the list isn’t reflecting the total number of your subscribers. Some users have their subscription private, therefore their name won’t appear when subscribed to your channel.
In the example above, my Youtube channel has 330 subscribers but I can only see 87 names and there’s nothing I can do to see them due to their privacy settings. In any case, I hope this guide helps you!

Additional Insights: Maximizing Your Subscriber Engagement
What can you do with this information?
Knowing your subscribers isn’t just about seeing names; it’s an opportunity to build stronger connections. Engage with your audience by visiting their channels, leaving thoughtful comments, or even subscribing back if their content aligns with your interests. This mutual interaction fosters a sense of community and encourages loyalty.
Analyze your audience trends
Take advantage of the filtering options in YouTube Studio to identify patterns. For instance, are most of your new subscribers coming from a specific video or time period? Use this data to refine your content strategy and focus on what resonates most with your viewers.
Encourage public subscriptions
Since private subscriptions limit visibility, consider reminding your audience to make their subscriptions public if they’re comfortable. A simple call-to-action in your videos can go a long way: “If you’d like me to see that you’ve subscribed, make sure your subscription settings are public!”
Export subscriber data for deeper insights
For those who love digging into analytics, exporting subscriber data into a CSV file can help you uncover even more details about your audience. Tools like Stevesie Data can assist in extracting this information for further analysis.
FAQ
How can I encourage viewers to subscribe publicly?
Mention in your videos or descriptions that public subscriptions allow creators to see and appreciate their support. Provide clear instructions on how to toggle the privacy setting under YouTube’s account settings.
Why don’t all my subscribers appear in the list?
Subscribers who have set their subscriptions to private will not appear in your list. Additionally, accounts flagged as spam or inactive by YouTube are excluded from the count.
Can I see my subscribers on mobile?
While you can view subscriber counts on mobile through the YouTube Studio app, detailed subscriber lists are only accessible via the desktop version of YouTube Studio.
How often is the subscriber list updated?
The list updates in real-time but only includes subscribers from the last 28 days by default unless you adjust the timeframe filter.
Pro Tip: Keep engaging with your subscribers through comments and community posts to strengthen relationships and encourage long-term support!
