Hi,

I have just created a landing page with a video background and it works on desktop view but on mobile view the video doesn’t play. Does anyone have a workaround to get the video to autoplay on a mobile device? Would really appreciate some help with this!

Hi @Mito_Singh,

Auto-play of videos on mobile devices is actually intentionally limited by the device/OS manufactures.

You don’t want to force unsuspecting visitors to have to download 100MB video over their mobile connection.

There are of course workarounds just a few Google searches away if you still want to pursue this.

Best,
Hristian
