Floating Picture-in-Picture and Background Audio

Many students need to take notes in external PDF readers, solve coding problems in web editors, or consult physical textbooks while listening to a lecture. Quietube provides powerful multitasking tools via Floating Picture-in-Picture (PiP) and Background Audio.

Floating Picture-in-Picture (PiP) Overlay

Quietube features an in-app and system-level draggable PiP overlay:

• Seamless Transition: Swipe down on the video player or navigate to another tab inside Quietube, and the video shrinks into a compact floating window in the corner of your screen.
• Draggable & Resizable: Drag the floating window to any corner of your screen so it never covers the text or questions you are currently solving.
• Quick Controls: Play, pause, or expand back to full player view with a single tap on the floating tile.

Background Audio Playback & Lock-Screen Controls

When listening to podcast-style lectures, history documentaries, or language seminars, you can lock your screen or turn off the display to save battery while audio continues playing seamlessly:

• Native Media Notification: Quietube coordinates with Android's MediaSession architecture, displaying a clean media playback card on your lock screen and notification shade.
• Lock-Screen Actions: Play, pause, and seek without unlocking your device, protecting you from accidental notification distractions while listening.
