I’m doing a project using Ionic + Cordova and wanted to know if it is possible on iPhone to leave a Youtube video running in the background when blocking the screen. By default iOS devices pause video when entering the background.

Is not possible.
The reason is, iOS doesn’t allow you to run video, or anything else related to the interface, while your app is in the background.
iOS allows you to run audio tracks in the background without problems, however, as you are plastered on Youtube, this will also not work, since YT prohibits audio extraction to run it separately from the video.

Friend, I have done so much research on this and unfortunately even today I can not find an alternative. I have tried everything but it is really complex. In your case it should be even more complicated, since the video is embed.
