youtube has announced that the picture-in-picture feature will be introduced for iOS users. It’s now possible to play a video “always on top” in a small pop-up window while using another app on iPhone and iPad.
This was one of the most requested YouTube features for iOS; at the moment all US users can to access it. In the rest of the world, only premium users have access to PIP. It has been available for Android users for a long time. Google hopes to roll out the feature to all iOS users worldwide “by August.”
As with its Android counterparts, the picture-in-picture window will appear when you exit the full-screen app. You can move the little player to another place and continue your quest if it gets in the way.
Strangely, it took a very long time for this feature to appear on iOS, but better late than never as they say. I disabled it, but it’s nice to have the option.
It happens! ✨ Picture in Picture is slowly rolling out for YouTube on iPhone and iPad and will be available just like on Android for:
