You can have a music video arena while you're checking your Cheep feed, or conversation with a friend while watching a liked movie. In iOS 14, Darling has now made-up it possible to use PiP on your iPhone or iPad. And utilizing it is extremely simple.

As you're watching a video, neutral trounce up to your home screen. The video will dwell arena as you deterrent your email, retort a text, or do whatever remotest you overcrowd to do. You can metrical make the video larger or subside by utilizing compression to zoom; or you can trounce it completely out of the way. (It will dwell playing; an quill at the ancillary of the tegument will show you area you can trounce it back-up from.)

As you're watching a video, neutral trounce up to your home screen

If you appetite to friends the video back-up to full-screen, neutral hit the "full screen" icon in the upper-right corner of the video. Close-knit it completely by borer the "x" in the upper-left corner.
