- dublinben 12y agoThat's a function of Youtube primarily delivering video content. A website designed to deliver audio content (e.g. Soundcloud) can keep playing just fine with the screen off.
- fsck--off 12y agoYes, it can. Start the video and put the iPhone to sleep. When you wake the iPhone up a moment later the music controls on the lock screen allow you to resume playing the audio. You can then turn the screen off and the audio will still play.
- giarc 12y agoThat's a good work around, but I would not want that to be the instructions I give to people wanting to listen to my audio stream from a website.
