It does not auto play in Safari Browser on iOS(work fine in Android). when tap on it , it will play fullscreen. I want it to play inline.

Hello @sopheap sk,

### Safari

As of version 11 released in September 2017, Safari autoplay policy states that:

- Muted autoplay is allowed as long as users haven’t blocked all autoplay in their settings.
- Autoplay with sound is only allowed if users configure it in their settings.

See [Auto-Play Policy Changes](https://webkit.org/blog/7734/auto-play-policy-changes-for-macos/) for macOS or for more information.

Safari users can set their preferences for autoplay for individual sites or all websites. See [Stop autoplay videos in Safari on Mac](https://support.apple.com/guide/safari/stop-autoplay-videos-ibrw29c6ecf8/mac).
