What Is Picture-in-Picture?
Picture-in-Picture (PiP) plays video in a small floating window while you use other apps. Android 8.0+ supports PiP when the app and device allow it.
On YouTube and modified clients
Official YouTube limits PiP on mobile in some regions to Premium subscribers. ReVanced and legacy Vanced builds can enable PiP for all users when the corresponding patch is active.
Troubleshooting PiP
If PiP fails, check app permissions under Settings → Apps → Special access → Picture-in-picture. Some OEM skins block floating windows for sideloaded apps.
Before you install
Always download patchers, GmsCore, and APK bases from official project pages or trusted mirrors listed in our safety guides. Mismatched versions are the most common cause of playback and login failures after setup.
