What happens if you exceed the number of devices allowed for YouTube Premium?

YouTube Premium does not have a strict device limit for individual accounts. However, there are some guidelines and potential issues related to device usage:

1. **Account Sharing Limits:** While you can use your YouTube Premium account on multiple devices, there are limitations on how many devices can stream content simultaneously. For example, you can be signed in on multiple devices, but only a limited number can stream or download content at the same time.

2. **Family Plan Restrictions:** If you're using a Family Plan, you can share YouTube Premium with up to 5 family members (total of 6 members including yourself). Each family member can use their own device to access Premium benefits. Devices used by family members are managed through their individual accounts.

3. **Device Management:** If you reach a point where you need to manage or remove devices, you can do so through your account settings. You can log out of devices remotely if necessary, though this is generally more applicable to managing which devices are actively used for streaming.

4. **Offline Downloads:** If you're downloading videos for offline playback, be aware that there might be limits on the number of downloads or the number of devices from which you can access your offline content. This is usually tied to the storage space on your devices.

If you encounter issues with device limits or need to manage devices, you can access your account settings to review and make adjustments. YouTube Premium's terms of service are designed to accommodate multiple devices and family members while ensuring fair use of the service.
