How to Create your Personalized Playlist?
Open the video which you want to be present in the playlist.
Click on the Save option under your video.
YouTube has a default playlist called the “Watch Later”.
You can either add your video to the default playlist or create a new playlist by clicking on the “Create a new playlist” option.
Now, specify a name for your Playlist then adjust the privacy setting of your playlist from Privacy drop-down.
You have three privacy options to choose from – Public, Unlisted, and Private. Choose the option that suits your needs and then click on the Create button.
YouTube would create a new playlist with the name & privacy setting you just specified and add the video to that Playlist. NOTE: The procedure to create & add videos to your Playlist is same if you use the YouTube app on your Android device. Open your YouTube app then navigate to the video you want to add.

To add more videos to your playlist, you can make use of the Save option available below the videos (as we did in the previous method).
