Understand your results
What the results mean
YouTube's own comment search is limited — on most devices you can only scroll. This tool asks the official API to filter a video's comments by your search terms, so you can find a half-remembered comment, check what people say about a topic, or pull quotes for research.
We show up to 100 top-level comment threads per search (reply threads are counted but not expanded). Matching is done by YouTube itself. Without a search, "Top comments" uses YouTube's own ranking; with a search, we order the matches by likes. "Newest first" is strictly chronological either way.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I find a specific comment on a YouTube video?
Paste the video link here and type a word or phrase you remember from the comment. We ask the official YouTube API to return only comments matching your search.
Can I find my own comment?
Yes — search for your channel name or a distinctive phrase from your comment. Note that YouTube returns top-level comments; a reply inside a thread won't appear on its own.
Why do I see at most 100 comments?
We fetch one page of up to 100 top-level threads per search. On busy videos, narrow the search terms to find what you need within that page.
Can I export the comments?
Yes — download the matches as a CSV with author, text, likes, reply count and date.
Why does it say comments are turned off?
If a creator disables comments (or the video is made for kids), YouTube's API returns no comment data, and we say so instead of guessing.
