    I am interested in using audio for intro and outro blocks that plays automatically.

      Hi Scott! Thanks for letting us know about your need for audio for intro and outro blocks that play automatically. We'll update this thread once we make changes that can help!

        Hi, autoplay blocks would be good, but also to be able to have section completion icons with sound (you've completed this section, ping! etc) 

  • It's 2022 and running background music that plays between transitions is still a huge QOL need in this space. Especially with the new Scenario blocks.

    Hello,

    I just would like to add, though I am not interested in looped background music, I am really interested in having the possibility to add audio narration to text blocks (with a player to play/pause it for accessibility reasons).

    Thank you for considering this request!

    Is there any reconsideration to add themed music to the entire course for background music? it is a nice feature to have.

  • Hi Donnisha,

    Thanks for checking in on this topic!

    Having background music that auto-plays is still not an option due to web browsers' strict auto-play policies. The best way to mimic this functionality is to use multimedia blocks throughout the course.

    Auto-play narration would be a great feature to have on each block option, if possible. Learners have reported frustration and some even missing the small play buttons for audio and commenting that courses would be better with audio and they dislike having to click play for each section.
