Description

Although I set controls="false" showFullScreenToggle="false" showRelatedVideos="false" showYoutubeLogo="false" there is still a tappable YT button as well as a "..." menu button from which user can select "Watch later". Either of these navigates the webview to a new page after which the YT player is no longer usable. I have not been able to do this on iOS.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Android webview issue with the listed YouTube player settings and inspect the plugin's Android integration. Verify how the tappable YouTube and menu buttons navigate away from the player. Done means those controls cannot take the user to another page while the player remains usable.
