pop up play now for iphone

With Galaxy S3, Samsung introduced a new and exciting feature that is pop up play. Pop up play allows a user to type a text or read an email while playing the video on the screen. This feature of popping up of the video in an adjustable way on the screen was exciting and new as no one every thought about a feature like this until Samsung.

iOS is always behind when it comes to adding cool new features. However, if you jailbreak you device, you can download and install a lot of new tweaks that are available in the Cydia store. Some free and some paid but the wide range of app and tweaks that you can find after jailbreaking a device will make you play with your device every day.

Today, a popular jailbreak community contributor Ryan Petrich has released a new tweak that does exactly the same that which Samsung's pop up play does. Video pane tweak for iPhone and iPad allows you to multitask video while you are working on something else. You can watch the video and re-size it to continue with what you are doing allowing you to not just do your work but also watch the video that is being played at the same time.

Video Pane is an application/tweak for jailbroken iPhones and iPads that allows detaching of videos from the player, be it YouTube or native iOS player or any 3rd party player like VLC and float the video on the screen while you can work on your device or do facebooking or tweeting. Video pane is a must have tweak for all iOS users. Video pane currently supports, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4 and iPod touch 4G and 5G.  You can purchase video pane from cydia store for a nominal price of $1.99
