How to Implement Picture-in-Picture(PIP) Mode in React Native (Android)?

What's this blog post about?

Picture-in-Picture (PiP) is a feature in video conferencing software that allows users to simultaneously engage in a video conference and perform other tasks on their devices. This guide explains how to implement PiP mode using VideoSDK, a powerful set of tools and APIs for creating immersive video experiences. To integrate the feature, developers need to install a third-party package, react-native-pip-android, and follow specific steps in AndroidManifest.xml and MainActivity.java files. By adding PiP mode, users can resize the video conference window, continue working on other tasks, and still see and hear other participants in the conference. This feature enhances user experience and enables multitasking more effectively.
