    I found a neat little workaround that I used for a while. I’d load the video up in my browser, turn the phone on an off a couple times, press play on the lock screen, and enjoy it that way.

    Edit:

    Still works. Just gotta full screen the video and then power off before it kills picture in picture.

    And now I’m listening in the background as I type this.

      @[email protected] gave me a really good suggestion the other day. If youre on Firefox, it might work for you too :)

      I just have the video running on Firefox and can them go to another App / turn off the screen
