YouTube recently introduced a redesigned miniplayer for its mobile app, which adopted a Picture-in-Picture style.
The update allowed users to reposition the miniplayer anywhere on the screen and resize it with a double-tap.
In response to the backlash, Google appears to be reverting to the original design.
Google may be rolling out the change via a server-side update.
