Ad free and subscription optional, I use it for playing YouTube in the background and skipping all ads for YouTube (don’t know how they do that but hey I’m not complaining) literally does everything YouTube premium does but without the 12$ per month price point. All for free ### 2/5 — ! *2026-04-29* Скачала это приложение. Не понимаю радости в нем. Сайты не выносит в режим «Картинка в картинке». Все перепробовала. Пишет «Получите расширение». Какое расширение? Опять же не понятно. **Developer response:** В приложении нет текста «Получите расширение», в чем ваша проблема не ясно – напишите в поддержку support@extension.app ### 4/5 — Overall *2026-04-25, version 2026.3.30* It works, u can make videos to pip and see it but when u do the pip and watch or do something else at the same time, your battery will run out faster than usual. Overall it’s a 9/10 for me, very useful when I wanna watch something and play games. ### 5/5 — отлично *2026-04-15* пользуюсь функцией картинка в картинке для ютуба.
