Weird question right, but I listen to alot of informative YouTube videos while working. I don't need to watch it, I just listen. I move around alot too, so with phone (Samsung S21 5g) in pocket its kind of hard to maneuver. Ear buds are not really the answer because I don't want to take up and put down phone each time I am moving out of range. Any app or feature out there to help 🙃

Yes. Go into settings, display, Accidental touch protection, tap the toggle switch which should turn blue then it is on

Hi, While a watch or listening to youtube videos, it will get disconnected once the device is locked or the screen is timed out. So, I suggest you increase your screen time out while using youtube. Please follow the below path to increase your screen time. 

Settings >> Display >> Screen time out.

There is another way... you can go to the Galaxy store and download YouTube downloader app. From my experience most have this feature being a DJ and constantly collecting music They have a pop-up function on them which if you activate it and it's on it will keep on playing when your device screen is off or you can there's even a play in the background function as well both keep the video going and playing and when you exit it out and you can turn off your screen as long as the pop-up screen the running background function is going is still on20210522_102545.jpg

The best one to get but I don't think it's available on the Galaxy store it's available on f-droid and you have to do other things to get that and it's called newpipe but they're all a dime-a-dozen as long as it's an mp4 downloader or YouTube downloader that usually called you can find it anywhere lot of them to have ads but there is also a options to pay to get rid of the ads not much and you're welcome

Like I told you they're called YouTube downloaders or video mp4 downloader you'll find lots of them if you just search that they have a download function but the download is not just for a video cuz if they'll give you an option whether you want video or audio so you can just download the audio if you want
