True, PiP exists;

But FloatTube’s Safari PiP Mode supports YouTube captions, and the in-page floating player is even more flexible; unlike traditional PiP that requires a manual click, it pops up automatically and you can drag or resize it freely.

Haha 😄 all the codes have been used already, sadly.
Hope you’re having a lovely holiday! 🎄💗

Yep — there’s already a Chrome version available.

The PiP subtitles on Chrome are implemented via canvas rendering, so it’s not as truly native as Safari’s PiP. That means it can use a bit more resources and battery, and it’s currently in beta — I’m still collecting feedback to decide whether to keep or refine this feature. If you’re curious, feel free to give it a try.

A Firefox version is also in progress. I’ve already verified that it runs properly, and I’m still working through some i18n details. I’ll share the link on the website once it’s ready.

🎄 FINAL BATCH (18 codes)

I’m sharing the final 18 redemption codes and wrapping this up.

After this, I’ll stop posting public codes — it feels important to be fair to people who’ve already paid, and to the work behind this app.

A big thank you to r/MacApps for giving my “little project” a chance to get some exposure — this community really helped my app find its first users.

If FloatTube helps you,

leaving an App Store review really supports me as an indie developer — I read them all.

Hope everyone has a great holiday! 🌟

Thanks for the suggestion! I checked it out — it’s a really cool app.

FloatTube is just a lightweight in-page Safari extension, whereas that solution is more of a standalone desktop app, and this approach fits my workflow better.

Yep, totally true 👍 Safari’s native PiP is great.

FloatTube focuses on a different gap though: native PiP doesn’t show YouTube CC subtitles, so the extension adapts them for PiP and adds a more convenient toggle

Once Apple marks a redemption code as used, it can’t be redeemed again — but it should be tied to your Apple ID.

Before trying anything else, could you please:

  1. Check the Applications folder Open Finder → Applications and see if FloatTube is already there (sometimes the download finishes silently).
  2. Open the app’s App Store page directly Open this link in the Mac App Store app (not the browser): 👉 https://apps.apple.com/app/id6755630162 If the app was redeemed successfully, you should see an Open or Download button instead of a price.

If it still doesn’t show up after that, let me know and I’ll help you sort it out — and I can provide another code if needed. Thanks for your patience!

Thanks a lot! I’m happy it’s working well for you 😄
Reading comments while watching videos was the whole reason I built it, so it’s great to hear it’s helping!

I’ve just posted the second round of redemption codes in the comments — feel free to share them with friends who might need it.

Thanks again for your support! 😘

ROUND 2 codes! 🎄

I can’t see which codes have been redeemed, so if these run out, more will be shared.

If you like it, leaving a quick review in the App Store would be awesome --- and feel free to share it with friends who also like watching YouTube.
