After Android, WhatsApp Web Now Gets Picture-in-Picture Feature

The instant messaging giant, WhatsApp has launched plenty of features for both Android and iOS users this year. The Facebook-owned company has released features to stop fake news and other features which improve the messaging experience for the users. Recently, WhatsApp has launched the Picture-in-Picture mode for Android which allows the users to watch videos shared from Facebook, Instagram and YouTube to be played in the chat screen itself. This way, users viewing the video in PiP mode will be able to continue texting their contact or scroll the chat screen without needing to pause the video. To recall, the PiP mode was rolled out to iOS users earlier this year. Now, WhatsApp is rolling out the same feature to its WhatsApp Web users as well, meaning if you’re a WhatsApp Web user, you can watch videos from YouTube right inside the same chat window.
