AdBlockTubeHow to use YouTube Picture in Picture on iPhone
Play a video in AdBlockTube and swipe up to go home. The video keeps playing in a small window you can move, resize or tuck to the side.
Steps
- Install AdBlockTube and open a YouTube video.
- Start playback, then swipe up from the bottom edge or press the Picture in Picture button in the player.
- Drag the window to any corner. Pinch to resize it, or swipe it off the edge to keep only the sound.
- Tap the window and choose the expand button to return to the app.
Picture in Picture needs to be on in iOS Settings → General → Picture in Picture → Start PiP Automatically.
Hide the video, keep the sound
Swipe the floating window off the side of the screen. The video hides behind a small tab and the audio continues, just like background play with the screen locked.
Send it to a TV
Open Control Center, tap the AirPlay icon in the now-playing card and pick an Apple TV or AirPlay TV. Playback controls stay on your iPhone.
Shorts and 2× speed
Shorts get their own native feed. Hold any Short or video to watch at 2×, and slide down while you hold to lock that speed for the next ones.
