Server Version#: 1.41.6.9685-d301f511a  
Player Version#: 2025.13.0

No longer able to enter Picture in Picture on iOS when exiting the app while a video is playing. Swiping from the bottom of the screen to enter the Home Screen doesn’t trigger PiP as before.

Issue began with the app update to the new experience.

Same - I’m on an iPad Pro (M4). Constant crashes too, but I’ll keep this focused on PIP failure…

Discovered that PiP wont work when using airplay to a speaker. When not airplaying, PiP functions, otherwise it wont engage when leaving the app.

Same. PiP doesn’t work in the new app experience on iPad. One of many issues.
