Auto play audio in Rise?
Is it possible to make an audio clip auto play in Rise? And if so, how can I do this?

I would also like this added. My boss is a big fan of autoplay and I will probably need to go back to using Storyline for everything if I can't convince her otherwise.
It is much slower to develop in Storyline so I'd prefer to use Rise. As an alternative, could you please allow Rise projects to be brought into Storyline? Then I could use the nice layout and built-in games. - KjellMathisenCommunity Member
I find Rise360 an amazing tool for deliver training content, however, some of the courses I would like to create need added voice and autoplay. I understand this can be done via a Storyline block but that is not really my option. I join the group that support autoplay option in R360, why not make it an clickable option like the one on images. For me this is the #1 in new features in R360, hopefully we will see it soon...oh yes I beleive in Santa Claus...still ;-)

Yes, feels weird not to autoplay (or maybe autoplay on first entry and then make optional?)--would love to know the rationale as to why the industry is moving that way? I assume because of offensive content, maybe you don't want audio just blaring on randomly, or for accessibility reasons. Even if for this, I feel like within an online course...it feels strange to follow other web standards. Thanks--would love to see this feature added!

Just want to add my support for easy to use auto play functionality (without needing to imbed a Storyline block). We want to include audio with much of our content, and requiring the learner to click the play button for each audio clip really diminishes the user experience.
Thanks for clarifying, Kimberly! As Michael mentioned, users will need to click a play button for audio to play in Rise 360.
Web browsers are moving towards stricter auto-play policies in order to improve the user experience. We agree that requiring some kind of action from the user, such as clicking a button before playing audio, is the right approach to ensure a unified experience for all learners. To that end, we won’t be adding any auto-play features to Rise 360. However, we are looking at ways we may be able to provide narration features that don’t auto-play.

Thank you for this feedback. I get that the rules are getting more strict.
At the same time I cannot explain to our learners that the content we embedded would be somehow too unsafe for autoplay. In addition to that the "problem" is already there with the Storyline block.
How can the community change your mind on that? :-)

PLEASE add autoplay!
It is hard for me to convince my company to move forward with purchasing any more licenses without this feature. All of our eLearning Development has voiceover narrations that need to trigger to play automatically when advancing in the lesson.

I've used many tools for development over the years and was wowed by Rise, but without enhancing the learning with narration, I won't be able to use it with a good conscience. Audio that pairs with visuals and text naturally and not as an afterthought where you must click on it is where Rise must go as a learning platform. Please add audio capabilities to text and visual blocks. We learn best when multiple channels or parts of our brain marry content elements.

Autoplay is now on the roadmap, but it is under "planned" and not "in development." This is good news, but there is no specific timeframe for implementation.

Has there been any progress on enabling Auto Play in Rise 360?
- KimberlyDeMuchaCommunity Member
Thank you. I totally get that part. But once I have recorded it, will it auto-play when the user gets to that point in the lesson?

Can I add my voice to the request for autoplay with audio clips?
