iOS 14 released to the public yesterday and it comes with a variety of features such as widgets and App Clips that enable users to use part of an app only when they need it.

A big feature of iOS 14 is it brings Picture-in-Picture to the iPhone. Previously, it was only available on a handful of apps such as Telegram. Now it is a native aspect of the mobile operating system.

To use Picture-in-Picture on the iPhone in YouTube, you must do the following things:

  • Open up YouTube in Safari.
  • Get to the YouTube website.
  • Type in a video you want to watch.
  • Tap on the video you plan to watch and start watching the video.
  • Open full screen of the video player and tap on the Picture-in-Picture logo.

From there, the video player should pop out and you can go back to your home screen and access other apps as well.

At this time, Picture-in-Picture is only available through the YouTube website through Safari and not through the YouTube app.
