FloatTube is a browser extension that delivers a smoother YouTube web viewing experience, with experimental support for Netflix and Bilibili. Watch videos while browsing comments and other on-page content. With the in-page floating player and enhanced Picture-in-Picture (PiP), you can keep watching without interrupting playback. Core features: In-page floating player Enjoy smooth, continuous playback with the video always visible on the page. - Appears automatically when you scroll down on a YouTube watch page - Drag and resize freely, with trackpad pinch-to-zoom for precise control - Supports captions and YouTube’s special caption effects Enhanced Picture-in-Picture (PiP) Improves Safari’s native PiP experience for more flexible, natural viewing. - Shows YouTube captions in Picture-in-Picture - Switch to system PiP during playback for continuous floating viewing, including DRM-protected video --- About Labs YouTube remains the primary experience, with experimental support for Netflix and Bilibili. Features may change as those sites update. To keep the core YouTube experience stable, Labs features run fully separate from main features and do not affect each other. On Netflix, due to differences in the web player, support is mainly Picture-in-Picture, with matching captions shown in PiP when available. --- About automatic Picture-in-Picture While a YouTube video is playing, you can enable automatic PiP in settings so the video switches to system PiP in specific situations for continuous playback. Triggers include: - Switching browser tabs - Leaving the current page (e.g. switching apps or Safari going to the background) To avoid unnecessary interruptions, FloatTube checks multiple conditions. Automatic PiP will not trigger when: - The page has just opened and you have not yet interacted with the YouTube player - You move to another display when an external monitor is connected - The video is paused - Safari is minimized ... This feature aims to offer a natural floating playback experience without interrupting your viewing, while minimizing accidental triggers. --- Tutorial: 1. Open Safari, then choose Safari > Settings (or Preferences) from the menu bar. 2. Click Extensions. 3. Check the box next to the FloatTube extension to enable it. 4. Open any YouTube video page. Click the FloatTube extension icon in the Safari toolbar. 5. You will see a prompt: 'The extension "FloatTube" would like to access youtube.com.'
