“Background playback” is behind the premium paywall; NOBODY gets YouTube PIP support on iOS; such a shame.
I repeat, even if you pay for premium you simply can’t do PIP using the official app. You can however use a browser and use PIP that way I think (there used to be some weird workaround but I’m not sure if it still exists).
Edit: I was (happily) wrong! I see now, they added it halfway though 2022 and I needed to go into settings and explicitly enable it. I’m a happy camper now! Thanks for the correction
You don't even get PiP on Android without premium.
There's a Firefox addon and 50 different apps doing that.
Thought people were talking about the native app not watching via the browser.
But, yes, Firefox Mobile Android master race. Can confirm it's so superior!
I still find the Firefox performance on Android to be a bit lackluster. Still use it for ideological reasons. They are making strides though.
