Storyline block does not autoplay in mobile
Hi. I attached a SL block on my Rise course and I wanted it autoplay on display. It is fine on desktop but when I preview on mobile, I notice that it doesn't autoplay. Any ideas on how to fix this? ...
Hi Alexander,
Do you see the play button similar to this screenshot:
The play button you see on a mobile device is intended behavior for Storyline content on a phone. Adam explains more about that feature here!
Hope that helps clarify the setup, and let us know if you need anything else!
Ashley, can you tell us how we get a nice wallpaper like you do on your example above? I get black screens on everything that I try to do, and would prefer to have the first screen of the storyline file as the wallpaper...
Hi there, Michael. Before they're viewed, all Storyline blocks will have a black screen with the play button on mobile devices. Once they're viewed and closed, you may see a gray overlay on the last slide of the Storyline interaction with the play button on top to launch it again, like in Ashley's image.
The key here is that Storyline content won't show through on mobile devices until the play button is clicked in order to comply with mobile browser autoplay policies in the most consistent way!
