YouTube Video Count Checker

About This Tool

So, you’ve got a YouTube channel. Or maybe you’re stalking someone else’s. Either way, you want to know how many videos they’ve actually posted. Not just the ones that are public. Not the ones that got taken down. The real number. That’s where this YouTube Video Count Checker comes in. It’s not magic. It’s just a simple script that pulls data from YouTube’s API and gives you the total count of videos uploaded by a channel—public ones, at least. Because let’s be real: YouTube doesn’t make it easy to see the full tally. You scroll, you click “Load more,” and eventually you give up. This tool skips the scrolling. No drama. Just numbers. I built it because I got tired of guessing. Was that channel really uploading weekly? Or were they just recycling old content? Now I know. And now you can too.

FAQ

Q: Does this count private or deleted videos?
A: Nope. Only public uploads. If a video’s gone private or was removed, it won’t show up. YouTube’s API doesn’t give access to that stuff—and honestly, that’s probably for the best.

Q: Why doesn’t the number match what I see on the channel?
A: Good question. Sometimes YouTube hides videos in playlists or doesn’t display them all on the main uploads page. The API gives a more accurate count. Also, if the channel uses multiple upload playlists, the visible number might be off. This tool goes straight to the source.
