Key Features

Universal Video Support

Resizable and moveable floating video window that stays on top of all applications, allowing you to position it anywhere on your screen.

Playback Controls

How It Works

MakePip leverages the browser’s native Picture-in-Picture API to create floating video windows:

1. Detect Video Elements - Automatically finds video elements on the current page
2. Enable PiP Mode - Activates picture-in-picture using the browser’s native API
3. Floating Window - Creates a resizable, moveable window that stays on top
4. Full Controls - Provides complete playback control from the floating window

  }
})();

Developer Integration

// Add to your website
function enablePiP(videoElement) {
