Watching movies and TV shows on YouTube

Watching on your computer

For most movie rentals, you have 30 days from the time of purchase to use your rental pass, valid for a specified amount of time such as 24 hours. You can keep track of how much longer you have access to your movie on your Purchases page. Once you start watching your movie, the rental grant period countdown will be replaced by the expiration time of your rental pass.

Be sure to enjoy the YouTube Movie Extras for your movie after watching.

If you experience any technical issues while watching your purchase, report them by clicking on the appropriate report a problem link on the Purchases page.
