I’ve been using Brave on my Android phone for a long time now and never had problems with the pip option until today. Idk what the problem is. I updated it, i cleared the cache, nothing worked. And it’s just on YouTube. Usually I’d open full screen when watching the video, click on the home button of my phone and it always worked. Im hoping for some help🙏🏻
I have the same problem, I’ve been using brave for a long time and i am very happy with the app , but today i discovered i cannot do picture in picture, i went to YouTube, choose a video, pressed the home button and it just wasn’t working anymore:-/
Use YouTube lite website, copy & paste the youtube video link in the search bar and play the video in full screen mode and then you will see that pip video Pop out mode is working.
Turns out that painstakingly digging through thousands of lines of code takes considerable time, effort and skill. Further, in the case of this issue, the code involved in causing the issue was particularly complex due to the way Google implemented the code blocking the feature in the Chromium engine.
That said, it looks like a solution has already been found and they are working on it’s implementation presently.
