Globoplay (Android | iOS | Web) has become the largest Portuguese-language streaming service in the world. The platform offers a variety of on-demand content, including movies, series, and soap operas (national and international), as well as live channels.
In addition, the mobile platform natively offers a feature called “Picture-in-Picture” (PiP), which allows users to watch content in a floating window while performing other activities.
To use this feature on a PC, users must install an extension on Google Chrome. Watching Picture-in-Picture videos on Globoplay is quick and easy, regardless of your choice. Here are the steps:
How to Watch Picture-in-Picture videos on Globoplay on mobile
1: If you subscribe to Globoplay’s plans, open the platform and click on one of the on-demand or live content.
2: Then tap “Watch”.
3: Return to your mobile home screen with the player open.
4: Note that the floating window (Picture-in-Picture) has been opened. Through it, you can pause or close the content, and it is also possible to return to full-screen mode.
If this method does not activate the floating window, your phone may turn off the feature.
To enable it on Android, go to the “Settings” tab, tap on “Apps & notifications,” and click on “View all apps.” Locate Globoplay, open it, click “Advanced,” access the “Picture-in-picture” tab, and enable the function.
If you use an iPhone, go to the “Settings” tab, tap on “General,” click on “PIP,” and, in the next tab, enable the option “Start PIP automatically.”
