User Reviews

Users repeatedly highlight X.app's Picture-in-Picture across apps (including Safari) with a PIP Mix for multi-video playback, strong Safari integration, and a solid free baseline. Some report ad-free playback on YouTube and reliable background listening. Common downsides include Twitter/X not loading, negative sentiment toward post-update UI changes and performance, pricing confusion around IAPs and subscriptions, and annoying banner popups. Overall, the core features are praised, but updates and pricing UX are frequent points of frustration.
Pros
  • Picture-in-Picture (PIP) across apps with a PIP Mix option to watch multiple videos at once
  • Strong Safari integration including share-based PIP, Safari extensions, and Shortcuts support
  • Free baseline features with optional paid upgrades to remove banners or logos
  • Ad-free playback on YouTube and reliable background listening
Cons
  • Twitter/X not loading reliably
  • Post-update UI changes and performance issues degrade usability
  • Pricing and in-app purchases are unclear or intrusive (free vs paid, banners, subscriptions)
  • Annoying subscription banners/popups

This app is great, and I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a way to PIP videos from the Photos and Files app (as well as others). It also solved my issue of not being able to PIP videos from random websites on Safari, since the option was not available on whatever Media Player the websites used. You get all features for free by default, and only need to subscribe if you feel like supporting this awesome Dev, or if you want to remove the subscription banner up-top (not in the way whatsoever), remove the logo from the player (I didn’t know it has one?), or if you want alternate app icons. The app allows you to add multiple premade Shortcuts to the Shortcuts app, which you can then add to the ‘Share’ menu. It also allows you to add the same shortcuts as Safari extensions so that you can use them there. The best part is the ‘Picture-In-Picture Mix’ option, which allows you to watch videos from different apps at the same time (i.e. video from Safari in PIP while watching a YouTube video). Can you do this all by yourself using the Shortcuts app? For sure! But this app is the Easy mode button for the rest of the people who would rather not have to learn and dabble in the Shortcuts app in a technical way, since it is overwhelming and confusing if you have no background related to coding/programming/javascript, or if you would rather not invest the time yet needed to be a Shortcuts hero.
