This How.com.vn article will show you how to post a YouTube video to the Snapchat app on your Android device. For many YouTubers, one of the best ways to let followers know you posted a new video is to give them a heads up and a link to the video. Luckily, Snapchat has a feature that makes this very easy.
Steps
Copying a YouTube Link
Open the YouTube app or navigate https://www.youtube.com. The YouTube app icon has a white background with a red and white play button in the center. If you're using a browser, simply type www.youtube.com into the address bar.
Find the YouTube video you want to post. You can search for videos by tapping on the magnifying glass icon in the top right corner of the app and typing in relevant keywords. Once you see the video you want in the search results, tap on it to open it up.- If you already have the video in a playlist or if it's a video you posted to your channel, tap on the "Library" tab in the bottom right corner of the app. Once there, you can tap on "My videos" to browse your videos or tap on the relevant playlist to find the video.

Click the Share button on the YouTube video. Once you find the video you want to post, select the "Share" option, which is located directly beneath the video title. The "Share" icon is a large gray arrow pointing to the right.- If you're accessing the video through your browser, you can copy the video URL by holding your finger down on the address bar and tapping "Copy" from the menu that pops up.
Tap the Copy link option. After you click the "Share" button, a number of options will appear. Select "Copy link," which should be listed first and has an icon of a duplicated piece of paper.Advertisement

Take a Snapchat picture or video. Tap or hold the white ring at the bottom center of the app to take a picture or video. This allows you to provide some context about the video you are sharing.
Select the paperclip icon from the options to the right. After you've taken your Snapchat, you'll see a list of icons on the right-hand side of the screen. Tap on the paperclip icon.
Click Allow to show links you've recently copied. In order to more easily share YouTube videos through Snapchat, click the blue "Allow" button to give the app access to links you've copied.
Select the YouTube video from My Clipboard. You will now see a list of links you've copied to your clipboard. The link you copied earlier should be right at the top, so tap on that.
Select Attach to Snap. You will then be taken to a preview of the video you want to post to Snapchat. If this is the YouTube video you want to share, tap on the blue "Attach to Snap" button near the bottom of your screen.- If you accidentally selected the wrong link, click the back button and repeat the process.
- 7Send the Snapchat. Once you've attached the YouTube video to your Snapchat, tap on the blue button with the white arrow in the bottom right corner of the app. This will allow you to add the Snapchat to your "My Story" or send it to individuals or groups.Advertisement
