New Delhi: YouTube is incredibly popular in India especially for streaming music and audiobooks. However, one common frustration is that videos pause when you minimise the app or switch to another one. This inconvenience often drives users to consider upgrading to YouTube Premium which offers the handy feature of background playback which lets you continue enjoying content without interruptions.
Did you know that there’s an easy way to keep YouTube videos playing in the background without spending any money? This tip is particularly useful since Google has recently raised the price of YouTube Premium. Plus, you won’t need any third-party apps to make it work.
Here’s how to play YouTube videos in the background on Android without premium?
– Open Google Chrome: Launch the Chrome browser on your phone or tablet.
