YouTube is expanding Picture-in-Picture worldwide, letting everyone keep longform videos playing in a floating mini-player while multitasking on Android and iOS. The rollout is aimed at smoother viewing outside the YouTube app, but Premium members still have the exclusive Picture-in-Picture experience for music content.
YouTube is testing an AI-powered search feature that can provide guided answers instead of just results. The rollout is currently limited to Premium subscribers in the U.S. and is opt-in, suggesting YouTube is testing both usefulness and user trust before broader release.
