In Google they have us used to a little strange things. With the arrival of Android 8, it introduced the possibility of being able to enjoy the videos in PIP format, floating window, but only for users who were subscribers to YouTube Red, now called YouTube Premium, a service that has been available in Spain for just over a week.
According to a large number of users, the YouTube application has begun to allow the platform's videos to be run on a floating screen, without the need for them to be subscribers to YouTube Premium APK. Of course, as expected, the service has a few limitations, limitations that we show you below.
The PIP function, Picture in Picture, allows us to enjoy our favorite YouTube videos in any application, allowing us to move through the entire ecosystem of our smartphone, without the playback or the sound stopping at any time, a function that was already available in some instant messaging applications but that at the moment has not yet officially arrived for all users, although it is a function that many users were waiting like May water.
Users who have verified how they can play videos in a floating window, have seen how this function is only available for any type of video that not music video, since logically it conflicts with the YouTube Premium service offered by the Internet search giant.
At the moment, it seems that this function only available in the United States, we do not know if this is a test that the company is carrying out or if, on the contrary, this function will begin to be available in more countries soon. From Androidsis We will be waiting to check the evolution of this function.
