Hi,
So I Discovered a way to play YouTube videos without the need of being in the youtube app, You can even play when The screen is off

# This method does not require youtube red
# No root is needed

It's actually pretty simple all you need is headphones or earphones with a pause/play Physical button.

1) Plug in the headphones
2) Play any youtube video from the youtube app.
3) Press your home button or switch off your screen, But don't remove youtube from memory.
4) Now all you need to do is click the Physical play button in your headphones.

Idk if it does work on other devices. But it worked on mine
