Hi,

Almost every time, when I leave the YouTube app and the picture in picture windows appears to contain the wrong viewport. Instead of the minimalized image, just a fragment of the big image appears.

You can temporarily disable PIP :

 

Go to your Android settings Apps & notifications Advanced Special app access Picture-in-picture.

Tap YouTube.

To turn off, tap Allow picture-in-picture.

 

It's probably a BUG.

What version of Android are you on? I haven't had this problem on android 10 or 8

Either @piratemonkey or quote me when responding to me. I won't see otherwise

Put a reaction on my post if I helped

What I say is from experience and the internet, and may not be 100% correct

I haven't seen anyone complaining on play store.

Sometimes even the landscape mode is broken.

Here is a few screenshot
