Restore YouTube Subscriptions From a Backup

Bring back your subscription list without subscribing one by one.

Upload a backup made with the Subscription Backup tool and we compare it with your current subscriptions. You see exactly which channels are missing, which you already follow and which can’t be restored before anything happens.

Restore only adds subscriptions — it never removes any.

Why use this tool

  • Preview before any change

  • Already-followed, deleted and invalid channels handled for you

  • Controlled queue with retry and a CSV report

How it works

  1. Connect your account and allow subscription changes

  2. Upload your CSV or JSON backup

  3. Review the preview

  4. Confirm and watch it restore

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How do I restore YouTube subscriptions from a backup?

Upload a CSV or JSON backup made with Subscription Backup — or Google Takeout’s subscriptions.csv — review the preview, then confirm. The tool subscribes only to channels you don’t already follow.

Will restoring unsubscribe me from anything?

Never. Restore only adds subscriptions. Channels you follow now that aren’t in the backup are left alone.

What if a channel in the backup was deleted?

Deleted or unavailable channels are detected in the preview, listed as not found, and skipped. The rest of the restore carries on.

Can I retry failures?

Yes. Temporary failures can be retried with one click; permanent ones (deleted channel, YouTube refusing the subscription) are reported in the downloadable CSV.

What does it cost?

The preview is free. Restoring costs 1 credit per 2 subscriptions actually added; already-subscribed and failed channels aren’t charged.

Is my Google password stored?

No. You sign in on Google’s own consent screen and MyFreshTools never sees your password. OAuth tokens stay encrypted on our server and are never sent to your browser. You can disconnect at any time, which revokes the access.
