How to Sort YouTube Results by Views Per Day
Quick answer: Filter, open results, Sort → Views per day.
I built YouTube Filter Pro because YouTube search never gave me the combo of filters I wanted in one place.
What YouTube lets you do today
No native views/day sort on YouTube search.
How to do it with YouTube Filter Pro
- Run a normal YouTube search for your topic.
- Click Filter next to the search bar (YouTube Filter Pro).
- Set the filters described below in the modal (Video or Channel tabs).
- Click Search in the footer and open View Results when the panel appears.
- Leave the tab open while the extension scans more results (complex filters can take up to a minute).
Choose Views per day in the sort dropdown.
Example workflow
After filtering meal prep to last 14 days, views/day sort shows which recipes are accelerating now.
Tips and common mistakes
Enrichment wait
Sort may refresh when likes/views finish loading.
