Like all other video playing websites and services, YouTube plays a video at a normal speed. But this may not meet your requirements. Perhaps, you want to slow down or speed up YouTube videos. Is it possible to do this? Of course, YES. In this post, we will show you how to play a YouTube video at different speeds on different devices.
Here, you should know that no matter which kind of device you are using, YouTube only works to speed up or slow down YouTube videos once on the current playing video. If you refresh the page or switch to another video, the setting will go back to Normal by default.
