Check your messages while listening to music on YouTube
What could be more annoying than receiving a message while watching a video on YouTube? Either we look at the notification and YouTube cuts out automatically. Either we continue to watch the video and wonder if it is an important message.
It's the same dilemma every time. But rest assured, today there are applications offering the possibility of watching a video in a small pop-up window that can be placed anywhere on the screen..
This system has the advantage of offering the possibility for Android mobile users to continue playing a YouTube video while using another application (internet browser, messaging, social networks, etc.)
