Available on Samsung smartphones, the "Popup Play" feature allows you to detach a video from an application to be able to continue reading it while having another activity on the device.The famous developer Ryan Petrich, the one behind Activator, decided to bring this feature to iOS users. The tweak is called VideoPane and works remarkably.
When you start playing a video, a popup asking if you want to detach. By accepting, you can then place it where you want on the screen of your iDevice in order to continue to play the video while sending an SMS for example.By assigning a gesture Activator to VideoPane you can also enable a transparent effect, allowing to read text while still playing the video.
VideoPane is available for $ 1.99 on Cydia via the BigBoss source and works for videos played from any applications or almost. YouTube, Dailymotion, Safari, Chrome, iTunes and Facebook are supported.
