YouTube Video Title Extractor

Paste a video link to get its title exactly as the creator wrote it, ready to copy, with its length and how much of it shows before it's cut off.

How to copy a YouTube video title

  1. 01

    Paste the video link

    Any YouTube link works: a watch URL, a youtu.be short link, a Shorts link or an embed link.

  2. 02

    Get the title

    The title appears exactly as YouTube stores it, including emoji and symbols.

  3. 03

    Copy or check it

    Copy it as plain text or as a Markdown or HTML link, or open it in the title checker or capitalizer.

The title as YouTube stores it

Copying a title from the YouTube page often picks up extra text or loses emoji. This tool reads it from the YouTube Data API, so you get exactly what the creator typed.

It also counts characters the way people do, so an emoji counts as one, and shows how much of the title fits before YouTube shortens it on phones and in suggested videos.

Frequently asked questions

How long can a YouTube title be?

Up to 100 characters. Titles over about 70 characters are often cut off on phones and in suggested videos, so put the important words first.

Why does the title look different on YouTube?

YouTube can show a translated title to viewers in other languages. This tool shows the original title the creator wrote.

Can I get the titles of a whole playlist or channel?

Yes. Use the playlist title extractor or the channel title extractor to copy every title at once.
