You use JavaScript for YouTube ad blocking for iOS Safari. Could you please also add Picture in Picture restriction bypass at the same command?

@Eugene-Savenko Any news?

@anastenko I would also be glad of such an opportunity and here's why. In the web version, YT always blocks PIP mode, even if I have a YouTube Premium subscription. Therefore, for those using the web version of YT, it would be nice to be able to view in PIP mode, which is in the app.

Though I share the pain, I think it’s a bit out of the scope of a “content blocker” like AdGuard.

You guys can try this app, which adds two actions into the menu to trigger native PiP and full screen on YouTube and other sites.

As @wzxu said, there are several other apps that do this. Check out this one too. https://github.com/arnoappenzeller/PiPifier
