How to add a video to your Chess.com profile

If you're a Premium member on Chess.com, you gain access to advanced profile editing tools. This lets you customize your page with all kinds of text, images, and even YouTube videos!

This can only be done on the Chess.com website and not the mobile apps.

Here's how to do it:

  1. Click the cogwheel icon ('Settings') in the bottom-left corner of any Chess.com page, then select 'All Settings.'

  2. Choose 'Profile' from the settings menu.

    • Alternatively, you can also go to your profile page and click 'Edit Profile' in the top-right corner.

  3. Scroll down to the 'Details' section and click the 'Insert/Edit Media' button in the editor tools under 'About Me.
