The iPhones and iPad both usually have a Picture-in-picture support for video services at a system level, but YouTube’s feature has often been spotty and improbable.
However, after recent testing, the feature has been made a lot more efficient and seamless. The service now allows viewers to watch videos even after they navigate away from the main YouTube app.
