    Hello,
    I inserted on my website https://tarekrabaa.com background mp3 audio which autoplay on my laptop (all browsers) but it doesn’t play autoplay on mobile phone browsers except on one type of browser which is Firefox.
    Is there a solution for that?

    Regards,
    Tarek

    Hello Tarek,

    Thanks for writing in! Most mobile browsers detects media files like videos and audios and it will automatically disable it. Video and Audios are bandwidth extensive and that is not good for mobile users.

    
    In Safari on iOS (for all devices, including iPad), where the user may be on a 
    cellular network and be charged per data unit, preload and autoplay are disabled. 
    No data is loaded until the user initiates it.

    This is one of the reason why browsers in android and iOs devices cannot view videos and audios via a website.

    Hope this helps.
