You can create thumbnails for your YouTube videos using your mobile device in a few simple steps:
- Open the YouTube app on your mobile device.
- Tap on your profile picture in the top right corner to access your channel.
- Tap on the "Video Manager" option.
- Choose the video for which you want to create a thumbnail.
- Tap on the "Edit" button next to the video.
- Tap on the "Custom thumbnail" option.
- Select a thumbnail image from your device's photo library, or take a new photo to use as the thumbnail.
- Crop and adjust the thumbnail image as needed.
- Tap the "Save" button to set the thumbnail for your video.
It's worth noting that YouTube recommends using high-resolution images for thumbnails, and that the dimensions should be 1280x720 pixels. Using a clear, visually appealing thumbnail can help attract more views to your video.
