The YouTube comments section could probably hold the distinction of being the most entertaining part of the entire video sharing platform. In some cases, it outperforms the videos itself. There has also been a regular trend that users like to browse through comments while the video is being played. But doing so hides the video and destroys the sole motive itself. In this guide, we have provided a trick using which you could read comments as you watch the subsequent YouTube video. This even works for playing YouTube videos inย  a loop.

Not only videos, but you could also scroll through Related Videos, Live Chats, Playlists and the Description about that video. Moreover, you could do the same on your PC as well as your Android device. Let’s now see how this could be achieved.
