    iPhone Screen Lock to "listen" to video while phone is in pocket

    Hi guys

    I've searched plenty but can't find a solution to these two things:

    (1) I have long videos that I took on the iPhone and just want to listen to them (not watch them). If I play them and put the phone in the pocket, accidental screen touches end up stopping the video. I can't find a way to lock the phone and switching it off stops the video.

    (2) Same while playing videos from YouTube. Somewhere I read about opening them in Safari and playing YouTube videos from the lock screen but that does not work in the new iOS version.

    Any suggestions about (1) and (2)

    Thanks!

    I have always wondered the same but never really looked for a solution.
    So if there are any solutions that would be great (I doubt it for 1)
