Here I Given in this article How to play YouTube video in background. The YouTube app for Android and iOS is very sleek but it still lacks the much demanded ability to play videos in the background. If you use YouTube for your music needs, you would know that it’s a great annoyance. The YouTube Red paid subscription does let you play videos in the background but it’s currently only available in the US. And while there are third party apps that bring this nifty feature on Android and iOS, there’s nothing better than having an easier way that’s more native in nature.

So, keeping that in mind, here’s a more easier way to play YouTube videos in background on Android and iPhone:

On iPhone and iPad:

1.Open Safari or Chrome on your iPhone or iPad and go to YouTube.com.

Note: You might get a pop-up asking you if you want to open the YouTube app. Ignore it to continue.

3.Then, open the Control Center by swiping up from the bottom. You will see that the playback bar in Control Center features the name of the video you played on YouTube.

4.Just hit the play button and the video will continue playing in background. You can then check out different apps or even lock the screen, while the video from YouTube plays in the background.
