How to Play YouTube in Background on Android (Screen Off) – 5 Working Methods (2025)

Want to listen to YouTube with your screen off or while using other apps? Here are 5 proven ways (including free, no-root, and no Premium methods) that work on any Android phone (Samsung, Vivo, Xiaomi, etc.).

🔧 5 Methods to Play YouTube in Background
1️⃣ YouTube Premium (Official & Easiest Way)
✅ Ad-free, supports downloads | ❌ Paid ($11.99/month)

Subscribe to YouTube Premium → Play any video → Minimize or lock screen → Audio continues.

2️⃣ Brave Browser (Free & No App Needed!)
✅ Works instantly, no extra downloads

Install Brave Browser (Play Store).

Go to youtube.com, play a video.

Lock screen or switch apps → Audio keeps playing!

3️⃣ NewPipe (Best Free Alternative)
✅ No ads, background play, no root needed

Download NewPipe (NewPipe.net).

Search & play any YouTube video.

Exit the app or lock screen → Audio still plays!

4️⃣ Firefox + Background Play Hack (Free)
✅ Works on older Androids

Install Firefox (Play Store).

Type about:config → Search media.play-while-invisible → Set to true.

Play a YouTube video → Lock screen → Audio continues.

5️⃣ YMusic (Best for Music & Downloads)
✅ Plays audio-only, saves battery

Download YMusic (ymusic.io).

Search for YouTube videos → Play → Lock screen or switch apps.

⚙️ Extra Tips for Smooth Playback
✔ Disable battery optimization for the app/browser (Settings → Battery → Background restrictions).
✔ Use "Floating Window" mode (if available) to keep playback running.
✔ Avoid closing the app—just minimize it.

⚠️ Important Notes
Unofficial apps (NewPipe, YMusic) may violate YouTube’s terms (use at your own risk).

Google may block some methods—Brave Browser & NewPipe are the most reliable.

Battery saver modes can stop playback → Disable if needed.
