Let’s face it, we all know it. Watching YouTube videos in PiP Mode on iPhone is something that most of us have wanted for a long time. This popular feature was kept out of reach by Google for reasons that are best known to them.\u00a0All YouTube Premium subscribers can now use YouTube photo-in-picture mode (PiP) on iPhone. What about iOS users that are not premium YouTube subscribers? There are reliable hacks that will enable YouTube PiP mode for your iPhone. Let’s take a look at them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can watch YouTube videos in Picture-in-Picture (PiP Mode) on iPhone. Google was launched in June of this year. It had promised that it would offer PiP support to YouTube Premium subscribers on iOS.\u00a0The picture-in-picture mode, which Premium subscribers can now test on iPhone, has been delayed. But there is a catch. iOS users can only until October 31, and you can try the PiP (picture-in-picture) feature. You can now use YouTube PiP mode on an iOS device if you subscribe to YouTube Premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, YouTube users who subscribe to freemium services have been excluded. There are two ways to watch videos in PiP on an iPhone. I’ve been using the Safari trick and Siri Shortcut for YouTube PiP mode on an iOS device for a while.\u00a0They’ve been able to allow me to view in picture-in-picture mode on my iPhone (more or less) without any problems. They won’t disappoint. Let’s get started with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Allow YouTube Picture-in-Picture (PiP) on iPhone<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"PiP<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Open a Use the browser you prefer. Go to YouTube.com\/new. You must be a YouTube Premium subscriber to access this feature.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Find the “Pictures-in-picture for iOSClick the blue button in the “section” It’s worth a try. Click the ” button. This feature will be activated on your YouTube app for iOS.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Next, go to your iPhone and open the YouTube app. Start watching a video.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Next, press the home button on iPhone SE2 and older iPhones or swipe up at the bottom for Face ID-enabled iPhones to go to your home screen. Enable YouTube PiP on the device. The YouTube video will play on your iPhone’s main screen in a mini-player (in picture\/in-picture mode).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The PiP window can be resized or reduced by pinching. You can also send it to any corner of your screen. You can also flick the overlay to the side, so you don’t hear any audio while scrolling Twitter or taking notes. PiP mode is still an experimental feature, so don’t expect it to work seamlessly. Remember that locking your iPhone screen when you watch YouTube videos in PiP mode will pause them. You will need to restart the video by using the lock screen media control. Google confirmed that they are working on this issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can watch YouTube videos in PiP Mode using Safari on iPhone<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Now, if you don’t wish to buy a Youtube Premium subscription, you can watch YouTube videos in picture-in-picture (PiP) mode via Safari on your iPhone. I have tried this nifty workaround on my iPhone running iOS 15, and it worked pretty well for me. You can learn more about how it works by following the steps below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Launch Safari Take your iPhone to the youtube.com\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Tap on the text icon (aA). Click the address URL bar to select the request Desktop WebsiteOption from the context menu<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Next, choose a video and start it playing. Then, switch to fullscreen mode. Then, Tap on the PiP icon. The top left corner of your screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. The video will now play in a mini-player. Now you can Swipe up from the bottom or press the home button. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. You can minimize Safari to continue watching your favorite YouTube video using PiP mode on iPhone.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Sometimes it is better to show things in video format so that you can better understand them. This demo shows you how YouTube PiP works. This workaround works on both iPad and iPhone. YouTube’s picture-in-picture mode (PiP), which is currently being tested, doesn’t work well with iPad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Siri Shortcut allows you to watch YouTube in Picture-in-Picture Mode<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Though creating a Siri shortcut for YouTube PiP mode is tedious, the result is pretty sweet. You can now play any YouTube PiP mode video in picture-in-picture mode on your iPhone once you’ve created the shortcut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Start the shortcuts App Tap the button on your iPhone to activate it click on the “+” button in the top right corner of your screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

      4. Next, click on the web page next toRun JavaScript, Select the shortcut input menu that will open from the bottom.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. You now need to JavaScript should be removed Copy the code from the shortcut window to the text box and then paste it below. Once you’re done,Tap on the ellipses icon. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      6. Name your shortcut. To keep it simple, I will name it “YouTube PiP” for my iPhone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      7. Turn on the “Show in the Share Sheet.”Click on the toggle, then tap “Types of Share sheets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      8. Select all the “at the upper right corner. Safari web pages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      9. Tap on the back button tap on the upper left corner of your screen. Next, tap the done button is located in the upper right corner. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      10. Tap on “Done.”Repeat the previous step to save the new shortcut.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      11. After you have created the shortcut, open Safari Go to youtube.com, Play any YouTube video. While the video is playing, hit the share click here<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        That’s all! The YouTube video will now play in PiP mode on the iPhone. Enjoy the video as you scroll Twitter or chat with friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Here you are! That’s it! You can now get YouTube PiP mode for your iPad and iPhone even if YouTube Premium is unavailable.
