PiP Anywhere

About

PiP Anywhere gives Chrome and Edge the picture-in-picture controls they leave out and helps restore PiP where sites hide or disable it.

Use it as the one PiP extension for opening and customizing HTML5 video. Trigger native picture-in-picture from a hover button, browser-managed shortcuts, the extension toolbar icon, or highlighted video selection. When sites hide PiP controls or disable video-level PiP, PiP Anywhere also makes a best-effort attempt to clear those blocks when the browser allows, including on popular streaming sites like Netflix and Disney+.

FEATURES

• Open PiP your way — use the hover button, browser-managed auto-select shortcut, highlighted-selection shortcut, or extension toolbar action
• Pick the right video — highlight page videos and choose the exact target
• Tune the controls — adjust hover delay, button size, opacity, placement, idle hiding, preview suppression, and minimum video length
• Best-effort unblocking — helps when sites hide or disable video-level PiP and browser policy allows
• Works on key streaming sites — helps on sites like Netflix and Disney+
• Control where it runs — disable PiP Anywhere on matching hosts or wildcard patterns
• Stay private — no tracking, no analytics, no accounts, no external servers

WHY IT EXISTS

Chrome and Edge support native picture-in-picture, but the built-in controls are limited and sites can still get in the way. PiP Anywhere fills that gap with stronger activation paths, practical customization, and honest best-effort unblocking for browser-controlled video restrictions.

PRIVACY

No personal data is collected or transmitted. The extension stores only your preferences in your browser's built-in sync storage. No analytics, tracking, accounts, or external services are used.
