Picture-in-picture (which allows users to watch YouTube while using other iOS apps) is currently available to Premium customers who enable it by visiting youtube.com/new. Once this feature is launched, it will be available to all paying users around the world.
How to use: While watching a video, swipe up (or press the home key) to close the app and watch in the mini player.
• Locking the screen while watching in picture-in-picture will pause the video. You can restore videos using lock screen media controls.
When you first try this feature, it may not work properly for the first hour. If the Picture-in-Picture feature doesn't work after the first hour, try deleting and reinstalling the YouTube app.
YouTube set a deadline of October 31 for the experimental feature, which it began testing in August. The deadline was most recently pushed back to March 14 and has been extended each time.
In addition to being an indicator of global paid launch, the date also indicates when non-paid YouTube for US iOS users will be able to use PiP for free with ads, although music content is not included in background playback.
YouTube is also testing a feature that allows reading comments while watching videos on desktop. This redesigns the UI under the player so that there is a comment box next to the channel information, which when clicked opens a scrollable list of user feedback next to the video window. As a reminder, only one YouTube test can be enabled at a time.
Click on the comments panel below the video player. You'll see comments next to the video player, not below it.
The above is the detailed content of YouTube continues testing PiP for iOS app as desktop site trials more browsable comments list. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
