How to use YouTube in Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode on iOS with YouTube Premium

By -


YouTube Picture-in-Picture (PiP) has been available on Android phones for years, from back when YouTube Premium was branded as YouTube Red. However, Google had been denying iOS users this feature, stating that Apple doesn’t allow developers to put features that use iOS APIs behind paywalls. Thus YouTube couldn’t support this feature on iOS without making it free for all, since PiP is one of those APIs.

While it’s not clear how and why exactly Google has now been able to add this Premium-exclusive feature to iOS, subscribers will be able to try it out for the very first time on the iPhone app. Safari workarounds to use PiP have been around, but YouTube tends to patch them every once in a while, making it tougher for iOS users to watch YouTube videos while navigating through their phones.


How to enable Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode on the iOS YouTube app

  • Follow the steps below to enable the Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode feature on your iPhone:
  • Make sure your YouTube app is up to date.
  • Subscribe to YouTube Premium if you aren’t already subscribed (psst, it’s cheaper on YouTube.com/Premium, compared to the price tag in the iOS app).
  • Launch the app and head to its settings, accessible through clicking your account’s profile photo in the top right corner.
  • Go to the Try New Features section and scroll down to find Picture-in-picture on iOS.
  • Click Turn On and force-quit the YouTube app.
  • Relaunch the YouTube app and head back to its settings.
  • Go to the General section and toggle Picture-in-picture.
  • Voila, you’re done! If you don’t see the PiP toggle under General settings right away, force-quit the app a few times and give it some time.
  • If the toggle shows in YouTube’s general settings but the feature doesn’t work, make sure you have PiP enabled in the iOS Settings app under Settings > General > Picture in Picture.


YouTube describes the feature as follows:

“If you exit YouTube, videos continue in a miniplayer on top of other apps. “Start PiP Automatically” must also be turned on in device settings."

It’s worth mentioning YouTube has also been testing a translation button in the comments section. It helps understand comments typed in a foreign language. However, you may only try one experimental feature at a time, so it’s either PiP or the comment translations. Experimental Features are exclusively available through YouTube Premium, priced at $11.99/month for the individual plan in the US (price may vary by region).

GES instructs schools to remain open despite teacher strike

By -
Image
  Dr. Eric Nkansah - GES Director General  The Ghana Education Service (GES) has instructed heads of schools not to close down their institutions in spite of the ongoing teachers' strike.  This directive comes after the leaders of three pre-tertiary unions in the country— Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), the National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT) and the Coalition of Concerned Teachers Ghana (CCT-GH), declared a nationwide strike on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, in Accra.

New Vice Chancellor takes over UDS administration

Professor Gabriel Ayum Teye, the new Vice Chancellor (VC) of the University for Development Students (UDS) has taken over the administration of the university from Professor Haruna Yakubu for a five-year term. Professor Haruna Yakubu, the former Vice Chancellor, speaking to deans, heads of department and some council members at the Dungu campus of the university during the handing over ceremony, advised Professor Teye to operate an open door administration for success. He said he had learnt a lot from the UDS over the five-year period that he worked as the vice chancellor saying, “I must admit and confess that I did not know much about UDS when I took over because UDS was perceived as a university only for the people of the north”. He said it was when he had the opportunity to serve that he realized that UDS had what the other universities in Ghana did not have and mentioned its trimester programme as one of the best in the country. Professor Yakubu also said the UDS intern...

Hundreds of basic school pupils in the Tolon District of the Northern Region have been forced to study under trees. This is because 12 basic school blocks which were ripped off by rainstorm in the area are yet to be repaired. The disaster occurred several months ago and one of the affected schools was Woribogu Ahmadiya Primary School. Additionally, some of the classrooms are overcrowded due to inadequate infrastructure. Head teacher of Woribogu Ahmadiya Primary School, Christiana Alandong earlier called for government’s immediate attention. The Member of Parliament for Tolon, Hon. Wahab Suhuyini Wumbei told Citi News plans were afoot to fix the problem. “During the onset of the rains a number of schools in the district were affected by rainstorm but we were able to do estimates for nine schools.” He explained, “I wrote to the Ministry of education through the district Director of education and just last two months the Ministry of education gave approval for the refurbishment of ...

The Northern Regional Director of Education, Mohammed Haroon Cambodia has confirmed government will be paying a staggering GHC400,000 as judgment debt to a private citizen in order to stop the auctioning of vehicles belonging to the Ghana Senior High School in Tamale. Government is offering the bailout following a chronic transport difficulty that has hit the school for the last two years after a court order impounded the only bus for students and a brand new official pickup vehicle. Two Nissan patrol vehicles belonging to the Education directorate were also taken by the court. The vehicles were confiscated to be auctioned to pay up salary arrears of a former headmaster of the school who accused the school and education service of injustices including inappropriate dismissal and concealing his promotion letter. Late Lionel Mahama was dismissed as headmaster of the school in 1997. His salary was blocked for years until a CHRAJ ruled in his favor and ordered his reinstateme...
