Sick of websites making Picture in Picture harder than it should be?
UnblockPiP is a Safari extension that helps you detach web videos into Picture in Picture and keep playback available while you browse, study, work, or switch between apps.
Whether you are watching a lecture, listening to an interview, following a tutorial, or keeping long-form content nearby, UnblockPiP gives you a cleaner way to keep video and audio with you.
Core Features:
Video Detacher
Add a simple Detach Video control to supported web players and open videos in a floating Picture in Picture window.
Background Playback
