About FloatPlay - Floating Video Player

Float any video into a draggable, resizable window and keep watching while you work, read, or browse other tabs. πŸŽ₯ Works on YouTube and every website with an HTML5 video. WHAT IT DOES βœ… FloatPlay gives you two ways to float a video: Float mode creates a draggable, resizable overlay on the current tab. Drag it by the header, resize from the corner, and use the built-in volume and speed sliders without touching the original player. PiP mode (Picture-in-Picture) opens a floating window that stays above all other windows and applications - including desktop apps, PDF viewers, and every browser tab. Switch tabs freely and the video keeps playing in the corner of your screen. πŸ“Ί YOUTUBE INTEGRATION ▢️ FloatPlay adds Float and PiP buttons directly into YouTube's player controls bar so you never need to open the popup. Just click Float or PiP right next to the CC and settings buttons while watching any video. πŸ”˜ Additional YouTube features: Speed control (0.25x to 4x) changes actual YouTube playback speed ⏩ Volume slider and mute toggle πŸ”‰ Seek bar to jump to any position in the video βͺ Automatic ad detection with stream refresh so PiP keeps playing through ads πŸš«πŸ“’ Works on all YouTube videos regardless of embedding restrictions πŸ”“ PICTURE-IN-PICTURE WINDOW πŸͺŸ The PiP window is a fully custom floating player with: Seek bar with current time and total duration ⏱️ Volume slider with mute toggle πŸ”Š Speed slider from 0.25x to 4x ⚑ Automatic ad badge while ads play 🏷️ Stays visible above all windows including desktop apps πŸ’» WORKS FROM ANY TAB πŸ“‘ Open FloatPlay from a PDF, a new tab, or any page with no video on it. The popup automatically scans all your open browser tabs, finds videos, and lets you float them without switching tabs. πŸ” KEYBOARD SHORTCUT ⌨️ Press Alt+Shift+F from any tab - including PDFs and new tabs - to instantly activate Picture-in-Picture on the first video found across all open tabs. No popup required. πŸš€ TRANSPARENCY MODE πŸ”˜βœ¨ Click the half-circle button on the Float overlay to make the video semi-transparent. Read a document or article through the video without moving it out of the way. πŸ“„ WORKS ON 🌐 YouTube Any website with HTML5 video News sites, educational platforms, and streaming services Can be activated from PDF tabs, new tabs, and pages with no video PRIVACY FloatPlay collects zero personal data. No sign-in required. No analytics or tracking. No data is ever sent to any server. All activity logs are stored locally in your browser and can be cleared at any time from the Activity Log tab.
