NEW 3 Minute YouTube Shorts Update 2024 What You Need to Know!

How do I choose a thumbnail after it has been uploaded?

Thank you.

What bout thumbnail?

Tks mom

What if you didn't want videos that were vertical and under 3 minutes as shorts? I like to upload cover songs. The shorts policy has a copyright in the background. lol Know anyways to convert my videos from vertical to landscape? Know of any work arounds?

thanks for your tutorial it helps a lot

no work

Not working at all!

It's not recognized as short at all. How do I do?

i sleep and check

it not works

Should I wait to make it public until it moves to shorts section

Thanks for explaining this I was so confused!

super helpful. Thanks for the explaination.

I'm giving this a shot. Thanks! Geez, YT...get it together already! Probably a lack of funding over at Google right now. 🙄

It has not done it to any of my videos that are over 1 minute. It's killing my views not being a short

Thank you. This is the only content I could find for the issue regarding longer shorts.

Really helpful video. Thanks 😀

Hi Anita, through the app making shorts under 60 secs you can choose any songs in the music library, will these get hit with a copyright if you use a longer clip of the same music?

Thank you !

Thank you so much for making this!!!!

Thank you

I appreciate the walkthrough I'm kind of kinesthetic with editing

Thank you for this!!

Trying this now with my first 3 minute short! Thanks!

She Doing it for views. Works for no one. 😠

hey hello hi there i have an issue then i did my first short with 2mins and 17 sec's and its not shown up as a short

People often skip Shorts like the TikTok videos. If it is a music video short they might stick around. Film trailers might work.

Thank u so much, hopefully they will make it soon that you can upload 3 minute shorts as shorts from the start

Are u British?

It doesn’t work it’s putting as a vidoe it don’t work

Yes, but what about the thumbnail? When uploading from our phone we can set the thumbnail...What happens when we use the desktop to upload the short ?

Can I upload it as a regular video on my phone since it's vertical?

Excellent ❤

Super helpful, thanks Anita

Awesome, thanks for showing this!

Does it count with public watch time because it took 6 days to complete so im confused if it counts or not?

Great info. Thanks. Now I'm figuring out how to add my Thumbnail to my shorts.

Not working for me. I have 5 videos uploaded in the 1-2 minute range and some were uploaded a week ago. Nothing has changed. They are still categorized under the video section and not the shorts.

What is that optimization score? Is it add on? Where can I get it? BTW thank you for the explanation!
