FAQ

Answers to common questions

Why does normal PiP fail on Netflix?

Protected players and dynamic rendering patterns can interrupt standard PiP flows. Skyplayr adds resilience layers to recover across these transitions.

How is Skyplayr different?

Skyplayr is optimized for modern streaming behavior, including SPA route changes, delayed player readiness, and persistent candidate recovery.

Does it work on all websites?

It works on most modern HTML5 video players. Some websites with strict DRM or browser-level restrictions may still block PiP at policy level.

Is it safe?

Yes. Skyplayr is designed with minimal permissions and a privacy-first model focused only on enabling PiP behavior.

Does Skyplayr collect data?

Skyplayr does not collect, sell, or profile personal user data. Preference settings are stored only in Chrome extension storage for functionality.
