With all the internet-connected devices available today, it’s easy to watch or listen to something while you work. You can even do it on a single-screen PC or laptop, thanks to Chrome’s picture-in-picture (PiP) mode.
How to Watch Video with the Picture-in-Picture Chrome Extension
Google’s Chrome browser is perhaps the most popular way to surf the web for a number of reasons, but one of them is its great feature set. Picture in picture is one of them, and it allows you to have a floating window that displays any content you want on top of whatever you’re doing.
This means you can play a YouTube video in the bottom corner of your screen while you work or play in the main window. It’s not just for entertainment either. It can be useful if you’re trying to learn how to do something on your PC without having to pause and minimize the video all the time.
To use PiP, you must be running Chrome 70 or later. Chrome should update automatically, but if for some reason it doesn’t, you should see an arrow in the top right corner of your screen. Select it, then select Update Google Chrome to update to the latest version.
