Picture In Picture Not working - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi guys I've noticed that after update 146, PiP mode for almost any app is not working. I've checked and the option for picture in picture is enabled. For example Youtube stops playing immediately after I exit the app and enter another, and no matter what I do I can't trigger PiP. However PiP in Huawei Videos is working fine.
How is this option for you? Can you get it to work or do you have any solutions?

I think you need a YouTube subscription for it to work in the background including the PiP mode

Well I didn't know that. Thanks! But isn't at least supposed to continue playing in the background? I was using iPhone since 2007 and on iPhone, it continues playing even if you exit the app.

I find PIP to be so unreliable. Yes, it's definitely not working on many of the apps

Hello i think that find the problem. the PIP work when the select the control with the 3 button on parameter system. But if you select the control by gesture, the PIP not work, not youtube, not google maps Why ?

If you use gestures you should be able to get pip by swiping to the recent apps, YouTube, vanced, chrome, ECT all working fine with me, I'm using fluid gestures.
There is a older thread somewhere about this.

For me it does not work. I have a huawei mate 20 pro android 9. Do you know how? Because actually on the honor 9 lite with android 8 it works well

Gestures seem to mess up the pip mode
When I go into YouTube and then swipe up to go home, the YouTube playing minimizes down into the YouTube icon on the desktop. When I use the three button navigation it works as it should. Note this is only an issue when I'm using the Huawei default home launcher. EMUI 9.1 android 9

Problem:
The Picture-in-picture window does not appear for apps such as Google Maps and YouTube when the user swipes to return to the home screen.
Cause:
Currently, the Picture-in-picture feature does not support the Gestures navigation mode.
Solution:
Go to Settings > System > System navigation, and set the navigation mode to Three-key navigation.

Yes the features offered by Ogyoutube are very good, but in Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 +, there is no button to adapt the video to the entire screen and looks ugly with black frames

Hello,
been loving my mate 10 which I own for 3 weeks now.. but there are just somethings that keeps bugging me. I try to check hi care to see but don't to use the phone to talk about something I know the support from our country can't answer.. So here are some questions that you guys might have some solution to...
1. Notofications DPI - been trying to resize this via dev mode, but to no avail.. Is it just me or that thing is really big?
2. mini display view when not using nav bar - no instructions how to do this is you don't like to use the nav bar and maximize the screen.
3. PiP - i know this doesn't work in youtube unless you are a red subscriber but, it doesn't work with chrome as well..
I'll try to add more if I see some, but the 1st one is tbd biggest problem I have. I tried going to a huawei store and they just showed me the mate 10 pro and p10 capable of minimizing font in notifs when view mode is set to small...

Disable the swipe up feature for Google Assistant on Mate 10

I recently installed Nova on my mate 10. Every time I try to swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to the drawer (all apps), both drawer and Google Assistant will show. I tried so many way and did so many research and still could't figure out how to disable this Google Assistant shortcut feature. I drive everyday so I enjoy using Google Assistant to make phone calls when I am driving.
Does any one know a trick hoe to disable this Google Assistant swipe up shortcut in mate 10?
Thanks!
Hi, its simple. Follow this:
1. Go to Settings then search "Default Apps"
2. Select "Assistance & voice input" then select none
Enjoy your new mate
Thank you @deodass, my same problem solved perfectly!
If you do this on Pie, however, you can no longer access Google Assistant in any other manner (as far as I can tell). I have a Mate 10 and am using the off-screen navigation gestures (i.e., relying on the home button). Any thoughts?
Isn't it easier to disable the Gesture?

Read again, I'm using off-screen navigation (I have a regular Mate 10 with a home button). That choice is not offered unless you're using gestures.
deodatts, you litteraly saved my life. I had been searching for months for a solution to deactivate this pain in the a**.
Created this account here especially to thank you !!!! cheers
I want to get rid of it too, but I want to keep Hey Google. When I initially disabled assistant, Hey Google still worked. Then, while looking for a way to change the tts voice (only two options, red and orange, showed up in the Google app) I installed Google Assistant from the Play Store and deleted it afterwards, and "Hey Google" under Voice Match in the Google app settings has been greyed out ever since unless I enable Google as the assist app and not just as voice input, which again enables the annoying swipe up gesture. Any idea how to go back?

PiP apps that work with gesture navigation

So far, I've found YouTube Vanced works really well even on Pie with gestures, even if it doesn't work the way it did on Oreo where switching to the last used app put it into PiP mode, but swiping to recent apps does the job quite well. As of the last update, the Beta version of Samsung Internet as well as Netflix seem to actually work doing PiP if you go to recents from full screen view, had anyone else got this change or found any other apps that work with this? Haven't noticed any other ones yet, and it is a bit janky compared to the fluidity of MIUI in general, but it is quite nice to have even as a weird version. Also had the same "workaround" when using standard navigation bar, so may just be a Pie thing?
Maps goes into PIP mode like 1 in 3 times I switch apps. There's no pattern to when it goes into PIP mode and when it doesn't. I'm getting pretty fed up with MIUI. It's so buggy.
On Android Q, miui finally made PIP work properly!

Question On-screen Gestures Not Working

Hi guys and girls,
Not into all this programming stuff etc. I got the official update last night on my Xiaomi 11LITE 5G.
Now my onscreen gestures are not working anymore.
Strange, because if you do the training of the gestures, it is working, but once out of there nothing
is working.
So I have to start using the buttons (which is annoying to me)
Anyone else has this problem?

I can help you if you have root. It stopped working on mine too so I use FNG. To get rid of the annoying 3 button navigation use these commands:
1. Download Termux
2. Su
3. "props qemu.hw.mainkeys 1"
4. Reboot
And you've got navigation gestures. Add it to the navigation so you can turn navigations on and off easily

I had also this problem, but only when I use Nova as Launcher.
Gestures works with default launcher. That's annoying, i'm used to nova and his usefull features.
Is there anyway to make the screen turn off and on by double tapping the screen?

Gestures being blocked on third party launchers is an Android 11 limitation.
Nova Launcher have issued a beta version released for Android 11 only, they figured out how to get Gestures working again.
