Summary
PiP Cue is a free Chrome extension that enhances Picture-in-Picture functionality with three modes (Standard, Cinematic, Captions Only), live captions, A-B loop, speed control, and timestamp-based bookmarking. Built by Naveen as a free alternative to both Chrome's bare-bones built-in PiP and paid premium extensions, it works on any video site with upcoming support for Netflix and Disney+.
Key quotes
· 4 pulledChrome's built-in PiP is basically a bare video rectangle with no controls.
And the premium extensions charge $3/month for features that should be free.
Three PiP modes, live captions in the floating window, A-B loop for replaying tricky sections, speed control, and a save-to-watch feature that bookmarks videos with their exact timestamp.
Completely free. No account needed to start.
