Google is expected to introduce a new YouTube video viewing feature in Chrome, according to a report by Windows Latest.

  • Chrome will automatically launch PiP for videos When users switch tabs while viewing a YouTube video, Google Chrome will reportedly get a new feature that will automatically switch to picture-in-picture mode (PiP) mode.
  • Desktop versions of Windows 11, Windows 10, macOS, and ChromeOS will all have the capability.

How does this new function operate?

As previously noted, the function enters picture-in-picture mode automatically. For instance, you might start viewing a YouTube video and then decide to surf another website. As a result, when you switch to another tab after the movie has begun playing, picture-in-picture mode will immediately begin. without using any manual processes.

Users who enjoy watching lesson videos for photo editing or easy instructions for phones, laptops, etc. may find the functionality useful. The feature may be useful to people who just want to listen to music or watch a common movie. Microsoft is also testing a similar functionality for Edge in the Canary release.

Users will have the choice of turning it on and off. Users of Chrome can also choose to enable or disable the feature. The section for Site settings is where you can access the functionality.
