FloatTube

After installing, open any YouTube video page — when you scroll down and the original video goes out of view, an in-page floating mini player automatically appears. Unlike Picture-in-Picture, this player stays within the YouTube page, letting you keep watching while reading comments or browsing related content — no need to scroll back up. You can drag, resize, and control it just like the original player. It also supports YouTube's CC subtitles and even special caption effects, so you never miss a detail. --- Safari PiP enhancements: - Supports displaying YouTube subtitles in the native PiP player - Allows you to adjust the appearance of subtitles in the PiP player through System Preferences for a customized style Automatic PiP support: When playing videos on YouTube, the system’s native picture-in-picture mode can be automatically enabled based on playback, allowing the video to continue floating for a better viewing experience.
