Stupid question.
With my old iPhone I could listen to Youtube and surf the web. With my Samsung I cannot do both. Any suggestions?
Download Mozilla Firefox browser.
Access youtube through the browser and open another tab to surf the net at the same time.
Thanks but it does not work. The techs say that is the way Youtube is set up.
Yes, it works. But my directions suck. (forgot you're a new Android user).
Make sure you have an additional browser in addition to Chrome. (I like Dolphin, but Firefox works).
1) Open
www.youtube.com in the Chrome browser.
2) In the three-dot menu at the top right, check the “Request desktop site” box.
3) Navigate to the video you want to listen to and press play.
4) **(optional..some phones you may need to accept )** If you’re shown a warning saying YouTube wants to send you notifications, accept it. (I never accept and it works fine)
5) Exit the Chrome app and you’ll be able to resume playback from the notification menu. (notifications menu is slide down from top of main page).
