About Picture-in-Picture Anywhere

Picture-in-Picture Anywhere lets you turn any browser tab into a floating PiP window so you can keep it visible while you work in other tabs or apps. Choose between full‑tab PiP or select a precise region of the page to follow. It’s built for quick multitasking: email, dashboards, docs, tickets, chats, or any web app you want to keep in view. Key features • Full‑screen tab PiP from the extension menu • Free‑area selection: draw a rectangle and show only that region • Works on most websites with a single click • Lightweight and minimal, no intrusive UI How it works • Click the extension icon to select an area. • Or right‑click the icon and choose “Full‑screen PiP.” • If Chrome asks for a user gesture, just click once on the page. Why it’s useful • Keep a live dashboard visible while browsing other tabs • Monitor inboxes, chats, or ticket queues • Follow a specific part of the page without distractions Limitations • Chrome requires a user gesture to start PiP if none is already active. • Internal pages like chrome:// cannot be captured. • The minimum PiP window size is controlled by Chrome. FAQ Q: Why do I need to click the page sometimes? A: Chrome requires a user gesture to start Picture‑in‑Picture when no PiP is active. One click on the page is enough. Q: Can I make the PiP window smaller? A: Chrome enforces a minimum size. You can select a smaller region to display more compactly. Q: Does it work on every website? A: It works on most standard https pages. Browser‑internal pages (chrome://, extensions) cannot be captured. Q: Does it record or upload anything? A: No. The capture is local to your browser and only used to render the PiP window. Q: Can I capture audio too? A: Not in this version; only video is captured to keep it simple and lightweight.
