Google doesn’t make that easy on mobile devices. Unless you have a YouTube Red subscription. But there is another way to play youtube in background. Check below steps :
- Open www.youtube.com in the Chrome browser.
- In the three-dot menu at the top right, check the “Request desktop site” box.
- Navigate to the video you want to listen to and press play.
- If you’re shown a warning saying YouTube wants to send you notifications, accept it.
- Exit the Chrome app and you’ll be able to resume playback from the notification menu.
