Hi Easton - It depends on what website is hosting your video. If your using vimeo you can follow this guide:

Youtube requires a similar setup. Simply grab the embed code and append

?autoplay=1

to the end of the url.

Thanks! I’ll definitely give it a shot.

Hey Johnny or anyone else. I used this code to make a Vimeo video autoplay. It worked on Chrome for Mac but not on Chrome for iOS. Any tips for that?

Hey @joshlevitan!

Alyssa from Unbounce here 🙂

I’m glad you got Autoplay working on your desktop version of your page! In regards to iOS and mobile in general - the different OS developers have intentionally disabled autoplay on mobile devices to reduce data usage, and prevent unwelcome or intrusive videos… You can read a good article on this here https://www.aerserv.com/why-does-video-autoplay-on-mobile-devices-not-work/ I suppose on a user experience level it’s nice if they get to click play 🙂

Many Unbounce pages choose to hide the video background from the mobile version, and instead apply a mobile-only background image.

I hope this helps Josh! Feel free to let me know if you have any further questions on this 🙌

I am creating my first landing page. Even on iOS, autoplay is working with Vimeo when previewing my desktop page. The problem is that I have two short videos on autoplay and sometimes one autoplay, and sometimes the other one never both.

This isn’t very pleasant. Any suggestion?

This is not in the background; the background video is giving me no issues whatsoever.

The videos are not showing in the landing page now at all, does anyone else have the same issue with Vidyard integration?
