I accidentally found this trick earlier today and I thought it was worth sharing… I’m not sure if it’s common knowledge. (NOTE: I do see there are some older posts about this, but it was new to me and maybe you.)
Basically, with this trick, you can continue listening to a YouTube video via your iOS device even though you “quit” the app, are in another app or have shut off or locked your screen.
Here’s a how-to video:
Step-by-step instructions:
1. Launch the YouTube App and play a song.
2. Quit the app by click on the home button.
3. Lock your phone.
4. Double click on your home button.
5. Press play and enjoy the music!
Bonus tips:
– Also, make sure you do Step 2 by clicking the home button. That want, when you unlock your phone, you can jump into any other app and multitask while jamming.
– You can create a playlist via YouTube… but, in some tests, it didn’t automatically go to the next song. You have to skip to next song before current song stops.
This is the poor man’s Spotify… Hope you find it useful.
]]>There are plenty to choose from… In the past I wrote about seeing the classic journalism film Deadline, U.S.A., which sadly has been removed. But there are many others to watch.
Maybe it’s a clip showcase… maybe it’s reviewing our work… maybe it’s a meme off, in the but-have-you-seen-this style? Maybe it’s a version of Mystery Science Theater 3000.
Anyone interested? Send me a note!
And, if you have an idea for a film/clip, submit it here!
Thanks for trying this out with me!
