Hello, this is feedback for the Brave browser on iPhone iOS. This is specifically regarding the YouTube website.
When I watch a YouTube video on “desktop mode” and when the video starts to play, it always forces the video to play in fullscreen automatically (even while in portrait mode, it will play the video in full screen but in portrait mode). It will automatically play in full screen, regardless if I pressed the full screen button (it will do it automatically whenever the video starts playing) This doesn’t happen on the mobile version of the YouTube website for some reason. I would like the developers to make the video stop playing in full screen automatically (while on desktop mode) unless the user manually sets it to full screen.
The reason why I want to watch YouTube in desktop mode instead of mobile is because the desktop mode of YouTube allows the user to “loop” the video (have it play it continuously on repeat). You can long press the video (or right click on a PC) and a menu will pop up, and it will give you an option to loop the video. The mobile version of the YouTube website does not allow looping of the videos. I often listen to relaxing music on YouTube and I want the video to repeat, but the auto full screen problem really gets in the way and makes it difficult.
Another suggestion is maybe add some kind of loop button for YouTube videos through the Brave browser so the video could play on repeat? Otherwise, fixing the desktop fullscreen issue would work.
Thank you!
