Auto play audio in Rise?

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. 

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!

I'm evaluating the Articulate Suite and I have now ruled out Rise because of this issue.  I use audio to enhance my user's experience and add clarity to the content on the screen. Reading is just plain boring. But having users click to start audio disconnects the user from the content and makes for an inconvenient and frustrating experience.  I agree with everyone on this post. It should be up to the developer to decide to enable auto-play. 

Agreed!  Please make autoplay an option in Rise 360.  It is "clunky" and frustrating for learners to complete this manually.  I know it's just one click, but if they read the whole slide and they can't continue because they didn't press "play" on the recording at the top of the lesson, we have lost our credibility and their attention.

I would like to add my voice to the request for auto play for both audio and video in RISE360!!

I agree with the above - it's absurd to not allow creators the choice to autoplay audio like in every other authoring tool. We can't include audio in our courses currently because it requires you to click on a tiny bar for every interaction which causes a horrible user experience for our clients. 

I'm strongly in the "add auto play" camp and agree with Tracy's compromise: let the creator decide if they want to enable auto play or not.

I agree, especially in process blocks, having auto play is helpful and then it can stop when users select the arrow to move forward.

Agreed - this is a critical function. Why not just let the creator decide if they want to enable auto play or not. Seems like a good compromise.

Thanks for letting us know, Suso. Media autoplay isn't on our roadmap right now, but we'll update you if that changes.
