Support YouTube audio continues after turning phone off

How do I make it so YouTube actually turns off with my phone? I like using Picture in Picture, and music apps should keep playing, but when I turn my phone off, I would like the video to stop. It’s super inconsistent too and it’s very annoying when I’m trying to shut off the video quickly but instead it continues at the exact same volume and I have to open my phone back up to turn it off.

Do you have YouTube premium? There should be an option to turn off background play

You can’t disable Picture in Picture from playing automatically when the phone is locked. You’ll just have to pause it from the Lock Screen. Or see if there’s a shortcut that can do that.
