When in going home in IOS app on iPad or iPhone with any type of media, it will not activate pip, only going into the app again pressing play and then going home again then it will open up the pip window

I can reproduce this. It’s odd that it behaves differently the first time vs. subsequent times.

There is a dedicated button to enable PiP, which works immediately.

Yes it only happens the first time it seems that content is playing but then works after that, seems very odd
