hello everyone welcome to another video from windowsloves.com
this is me host project and in today's video i'm going to show you how to minimize youtube on your
iphone and also how to enable youtube picture and picture using a browser so let's get started
before we start please make sure you give this video a thumbs up subscribe for any more
tech tutorials and also if you have any issues if you run into any issues or if you have any
other ideas please let me know in the comments and i'll make sure that i'll update them in the
future videos a couple of things is i'm going to use a third-party browser not a third-party
media player applications uh reason being is i don't really trust any applications that's
been developed by any third party unless it's a reputable company and a reputable developer so
if you want to use any other applications which is provided online to minimize youtube please
go for it uh i personally don't suggest to my users but because i don't know if further down
the road that that application might create any issues or might breach your privacy and your data
second thing is i'll also show you how to enable youtube picture and picture on iphone which is
pretty much the same process as minimizing youtube but i'll go through both of them as we proceed
with this video okay now uh you should know how to log into app store and how to download free
applications from app store on your iphone uh if not please get some assistance but it is pretty
straightforward so it shouldn't be an issue for you so first i'm gonna go and download a
application called opera browser so i'm going to open app store and once the app store is up
on the bottom right corner there's a search option so i'm going to tap on search and
what you want to do is you want to search for opera mini so that's already there so if you just
go and opera mini search and just look for this icon here with a white background and a red color
circle um if not just make sure that when you open it you've got to make sure that it is supplied by
opera software as as you can see just under the title and once that's there and if you've
confirmed that this is right applications go and download it you don't want to download any other
application that is trying to look like opera mini once the download is completed tap on open
and it says welcome to opera tap on continue and this is actually a really cool browser if you
want to use it for other purposes as well but for the purpose of this video i'm going to show you
how to just minimize youtube using opera so i'm gonna go start browsing and as you can see on the
dashboard itself there is a there is a youtube icon so i'm gonna go tap on the youtube and it
loads the normal uh mobile version of youtube so what you wanna do is first you want to search for
a video or you can jump to the second step but i'm just going to search for one of my videos
so i'm just going to open one of my own videos just for privacy reasons and once the video is
opened there might be some ads depending on the video itself so at this at the moment it doesn't
have any ad so that's fine so what you want to do is once the video is playing you're going to tap
to stop it or you don't have to you don't really have to pause it but once the video has started to
play what you want to do is on the bottom right corner you will see three lines you want to tap
on that and there is an option that says desktop site so tap on desktop site slide that slider all
the way or just tap on enable slide it so now as you can see it's opened up a desktop version
or the full version of youtube and this one actually has ads so let the ads play skip the ads
and as you can see the video has started to play what i want to do now is the first thing i want to
show you how to play this video in background or how to play this video while your phone is
locked so what i'm going to go ahead is i'm gonna go and lock it okay so i'm just gonna now the
video has stopped playing so now if i go back and press the power button again or the lock button
on the home screen there will be a play option and the top it will give you the video title
what you want to do is just tap on play and as you can see the video has started to play
again so that's how you minimize youtube on your iphone you can listen to your audiobooks like
this you can listen to any music like this or you can listen to any long form content
like this while you're driving or while you're on a bus or anything like that so
that was a part one of the video now the part two of the video is how to enable picture and picture
so picture-in-picture is basically it turns your youtube into a small mini player that
sort of floats around on the screen while you use other applications or while you do other things on
your phone so at the moment with ios 14 this was enabled for almost everything um and on the better
version of ios 14 it was enabled for youtube as well but unfortunately on the full version it was
pulled out for obvious reasons because youtube has its own premium services which does that
so um with opera browser you can actually sort of achieve that so what you want to do is you want to
download opera again you want to open youtube you want to open the video you want to play
in picture-in-picture mode and once the video is up you what you want to do is tap on the bottom
right corner and then you want to slide the desktop side slider and it opens the desktop
version now what you want to do is there's a couple of options so start playing the video
okay so there's a couple of options what you can do is you can you can tap on the second icon on
the top right corner this looks like a pip icon or picture-in-picture icon or the easiest way to do
is just swipe up from the top depending on the depending on the iphone you have basically but
swipe up from the top and now as you can see the video has gone into pip mode or
the picture in picture mode you can hide it on the left you can hide it on the right
and you can bring it out or depending on your preference as well and if this goes the same so
once the video is in pip mode again if you lock your screen you can tap and tap
and play it as we did before as the same thing and if an expanded you would tap on it and you
can tap on the icon on the top right corner and it will expand back to the normal version and
if you slide if you swipe down you will go back to the youtube version okay so now please make
