How to Change Your Profile Picture on YouTube
This wikiHow teaches you how to update your profile picture on YouTube using a computer, phone, or tablet. Because your YouTube account is linked to your Google account, you'll need to make your profile photo change in your Google account settings. Changing your profile photo will also change it on other Google apps, including Gmail and Hangouts.
Steps

Mobile

Open the YouTube app on your phone or tablet. It's the red rectangle icon containing a white sideways triangle.

Tap your current profile picture. It's in a circle at the top-right corner. If you don't have a photo, you'll see your first initial instead.

Tap Manage your Google Account. It's at the top of the menu below your email address. This opens your Google Account screen.

Tap your current photo. It's at the top-center part of the screen. A pop-up alert will appear.

Tap Set Profile Picture on the pop-up. Now you'll see two new options.

Tap Choose from photos to upload a photo from your phone or tablet. This opens your phone or tablet's gallery. If you'd rather take a new photo right now with your camera, tap Take photo to open the camera instead.

Select a photo and tap Accept. If you captured a new photo instead of selecting one, tap Use photo instead. Your new profile photo now represents you on YouTube and in all other Google apps.
