User reviews

PiPControl is praised for its simplicity, compatibility with various video sources, and effective control within the Picture-in-Picture window. Users appreciate its bright icon that stands out on dark themes and its usefulness for multitasking during work or study. However, some users note that the browser must stay open for it to work, and the extension lacks subtitle support in the PIP window.
Pros
  • Works with any type of video, not just YouTube.
  • Bright and easily visible icon, especially on dark browser themes.
  • Lightweight, easy to use, and resizable window.
  • Enables multitasking, allowing users to watch videos while working or doing school work.
  • Allows play control directly within the PIP window, unlike other extensions.
Cons
  • Requires the browser to remain open while using the extension.
  • Does not play subtitles in the Picture-in-Picture window.

Единственное расширение в котором работает Play в самом окне. В других расширениях пробовал ставит на паузу , а обратно не включает. Это включает. Плюс на темном фоне браузера сама иконка отлично видна
