Add ad-free youtube video to Rise 360

Is there a way to add a YouTube video and make it ad-free? It always starts with an ad.

Thank you

  • Hi Amal! I understand you want to add a YouTube video in Rise and make it ad-free. 

    We don't have control over YouTube videos since they are hosted on their site. 

    If you own the video, I would suggest adding the actual video file directly in Rise.  If not, you can ask permission from the video creator to download their video and add it to your course. That way, you can ensure that they are viewed ad-free.

      Hi!  Has there been any other updates in the last 2 years to remove ads from embedded YouTube videos?

        Hi SeanLudlam-511d!

        Thanks for checking in on this!

        Currently, the behavior my teammate Hazel shared, is still expected when embedding videos hosted on third-party websites.

        We'll be sure to share updates if we release any future enhancements that help!
