YSK it’s possible to minimise YouTube videos and lock your iPhone screen even without a Premium subscription
Why YSK: The Youtube mobile app pauses your content when you minimise the app or lock the screen. They do it to incentivise you to get a premium subscription.
The Youtube free tier:
* does not allow you to use other applications or lock the screen while the video is playing
* wastes energy if you intend to only consume the audio
* can cause accidental touches and pause the video when you put it in your bag/pocket while the video is playing
***
**Here's how you do it:**
1. Get the official Brave browser from appstore.
2. Open your Youtube video in that browser
3. Click "Open in Playlist" on the address bar. The button has the ♪ icon
4. Enjoy
\* I have personally tested it only with iOS. There are mixed reports on whether it works on Android
