Minister Bartolo revealed that he is eager to see headliner and superstar rapper French Montana. The Minister also stated that, while superstar DJ Marshmello may appeal to a younger crowd than himself, he is also excited to see Grammy-nominated DJ and Producer Marshmello.

The headliners, Marshmello and French Montana, will be joined by fellow Isle of MTV Malta acts bbno$, Mae Muller and Malta’s own Shaun Farrugia and a roster of Maltese talent on Tuesday 19th July at Il-Fosos Square in Floriana.

YouTube to finally let users watch videos whilst using other apps on phone

Jul 18 2022

The day has finally arrived as YouTube has just installed a new function which will allow users to do other things on their phone whilst still watching videos.

This was one of the major drawbacks of YouTube in general as once you exit the app to text or use any other application, whatever you’re currently watching automatically shuts off.

Those days are over however as the new picture-in-picture mode will allow users to watch videos in a floating window whilst performing other activities on the iPhone or iPad.

it’s happening! ✨ picture-in-picture is slowly rolling out for YouTube on iPhone & iPad, & just like on Android, will be avail to:

Premium members globally &
non-Premium members in US (non-music only)

it’s been a long time coming 😌 all the details ➡️ https://t.co/mNbPWWE21n pic.twitter.com/ZeBY48KOhH

— TeamYouTube (@TeamYouTube) July 11, 2022

After user feedback was submitted, the company noted that this was one of the most requested features for YouTube. The feature will as of yet be available for premium members worldwide and non-premium users in the US.

However, the new function won’t be available for music unless one has a premium subscription. Taking to Twitter, YouTube itself acknowledged that this has been ‘a long time coming’.

For those wondering how it will work, all one needs to do is head to settings, then General in the YouTube app and turn on picture-in-picture. From then on, it’s multi-tasking all the way.
