## Description

Enable PiP Mode restores the built-in Picture-in-Picture capability on sites that block it by removing the disablepictureinpicture attribute from HTML5 videos. It detects HTML5 video elements on pages and ensures PiP is allowed, so you can watch videos in a floating window again.

Privacy-first and lightweight: the extension runs entirely on your device with no tracking, analytics, or external requests. It does not modify video content, bypass DRM, or interfere with site functionality beyond re-enabling PiP controls.
