How it works
Three steps, about ninety seconds. You never have to open Listabell again unless you want to.
- 1
Find the channel
Search any YouTube channel by name. Listabell pulls up everything it publishes, grouped into playlists.
- 2
Pick your playlists
Subscribe to just the ones you want. The channel's other uploads stay out of your inbox entirely.
- 3
Get notified
A new video appears? You get an email or a Telegram message with the title, thumbnail and a direct watch link.
Why not just subscribe to the channel?
Because a channel subscription fires on everything it posts. A playlist subscription fires on one topic — the one you came for.
Only what you chose
Follow the tutorial series without the vlogs, the podcast without the shorts, the one course without the rest of the catalogue.
Email, Telegram, or both
Pick the channel that actually reaches you, and change your mind whenever — it's one toggle in settings.
A link, not a nudge
Every alert carries the video title, its thumbnail and a direct watch link. No “something new is waiting” bait.
Free, and honest about it
No ads, no upsell, no reselling your subscriptions. Donations keep the server on, and they stay out of your way.
This is the whole product.
One tidy message when something you follow gets a new video. Nothing to check, nothing to scroll, nothing to dismiss.
Questions people actually ask
Can you subscribe to a YouTube playlist?
Not in the way most people mean. YouTube lets you save a playlist to your library, but it will not tell you when a new video is added to it — notifications are tied to the channel, not the playlist. Listabell exists to fill exactly that gap: it checks your playlists and alerts you on the playlist, not the channel.
How do I get notified when a playlist gets a new video?
Create a free Listabell account, search for the channel, and subscribe to the playlists you want. From then on you get an email or a Telegram message with the new video's title, thumbnail and a direct link.
How often does Listabell check for new videos?
Every hour, around the clock. In practice that means you hear about a new upload within the hour, without having to open YouTube to find out.
Do I need a YouTube or Google account?
No. Listabell only reads public playlist data, so you never connect a Google account and never grant access to your YouTube subscriptions. An email address is all you need.
Is Listabell really free?
Yes — there is no paid tier and no trial. Running costs are covered by optional donations, which is why you will see a quiet link in the footer of emails and nowhere else.
Can I turn the notifications off?
Any time, from Settings. Switch email off, Telegram off, unsubscribe from a single playlist, or delete your account and everything attached to it in one click.
Follow the playlist. Skip the rest.
Set it up once in about a minute. It's free, and you can delete your account whenever you like.
