I see some people find loopholes that may unwillingly expose them to stuff they may not want on the phone, such as YouTube playing in a side-loaded app.

It is up to the maker of a sideloaded app as to whether the app supports WebView technology, which can let, for example, a YouTube video play in that sideloaded app.

As @urszula has pointed out, if an app supports WebView functionality, then a user can stay within the app but see that to which the URL navigates. The app that you are using (Audire) supports the WebView functionality. (Notice the “WebView” label at the top of your second screenshot.) You are ‘browsing’ to that video within that app because of this.
