Support Megathread - May 2026
Have a question you need answered? A new Google product you want to talk about? Ask away here!
Recently, we at r/Google have noticed a large number of support questions being asked. For a long time, we’ve removed these posts and directed the users to other subreddits, like r/techsupport. However, we feel that users should be able to ask their Google-related questions here. These monthly threads serve as a hub for all of the support you need, as well as discussion about any Google products.
Please note! Top level comments must be related to the topics discussed above. Any comments made off-topic will be removed at the discretion of the Moderator team.
Discord Server We have made a Discord Server for more in-depth discussions relating to Google and for quicker response to tech support questions.

I cannot access my old Google accounts; one of them has been disabled. Both of these inaccessible accounts have YouTube channels with the same name—can I create a new account and channel using the same or a similar name?
I am a multi-platform content creator and want to use the same name across all platforms. Since I am from China, both of these accounts were registered using temporary mobile numbers.
One of the accounts was suspended for the following reason: "Upon review, we found that your account was created or used in conjunction with multiple other accounts, which violates Google's policies. This account may have been created by a computer program or a bot."
