Occasionally, we receive reports mentioning that the YouTube app on mobile phones may continue to play music even when minimized, a functionality normally only available to members of YouTube Premium or Music Premium.

Conclusion

We focus our efforts on issues affecting the confidentiality and integrity of user data, and this issue does not meet that criteria. We don't consider background music playback protection issues as security sensitive, and we won't file bugs for those issues as a result. Reports of this type are not eligible for reward or credit under Google VRP.
