YouTube: how to listen to music in the background on Android

Listening to free music on YouTube is very convenient. For example, there are titles that are not on Deezer or Spotify. The problem is that it forces you to stay on the application and during this time, you cannot do anything else on your smartphone and especially not turn it off. Well, that was before. We explain how to listen to music in the background!



We all use YouTube to play music in the evening and for good reason since you can find almost all the songs you want, even the lesser known and above all it's still a good way to listen to music for free. Only problem, you have to stay on the application, the screen therefore remains on, it pumps the battery and you can not do anything else on your smartphone during this time.


Listen to music on YouTube in the background

Well, that was before because now, the OGYouTube application allows you to listen to music in the background, including when your smartphone screen is off. You will even be able to put your smartphone in your pocket while you listen to music on the bus or the metro with your headphones, as with YouTube Music in short.

Apart from the fact that the application is not available in the Google Play Store (and we understand why!) But only on the developer's site, as you will be able to see, the installation of OggYouTube is very simple . Here is how to do it:

  • Go to the menu Settings> Personal> Security on your smartphone and check the "Unknown sources" box
  • Go to the official website of the application developer by clicking here via your mobile and start the download
  • Follow the onscreen instructions to install the APK file
  • Launch OGYouTube, choose a title and start playing.
  • To put the app in the background, click on the background button or put your phone to sleep, the music will continue to play.

Note that the app also allows you to download videos. Be careful, however, to do not log into your Google account with the app.
