rllmukforum Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 Users of our forum have started reporting that YouTube and similar videos are now auto playing in iOS. This appears to have started just before the iOS 15 release (e.g, 14.8), although affects 15 too. All embedded YouTube videos on in a topic a user is browsing will start to play at the same time. I haven't been able to find similar feedback given here, although one user did note that it seems to affect other sites, too. It also occurs irrespective of browser. Does not seem to affect Android, Windows, or MacOS. Any help appreciated.
Marc Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 This would usually be something in which is switched on/off within iOS. Take a look in Settings->Accessability->Motion . Wondering if they have changed the default in the latest releases of iOS
rllmukforum Posted October 1, 2021 Author Posted October 1, 2021 Thanks, Marc. Quote I have it switched off, it makes no difference unfortunately. Feedback from a user.
Solution Marc Posted October 1, 2021 Solution Posted October 1, 2021 As mentioned in another item on the same topic, we are not doing anything specific here relating to the auto play of video. It also seems this is only happening since updating iOS. So unfortunately, it would seem its an iOS issue here, rather than one with the software. Jim M and rllmukforum 2
