The “Ask” button is a mobile-only tool that allows users to interact with the videos they're watching in a whole new way.

The tool is currently available exclusively to YouTube Premium subscribers on Android devices.

According to YouTube ’s support page, the Ask’ button only works on “select English videos,” which means it's accessible on just 28% of the platform's 3.9 billion videos.
