Hey @ol_mas

Thanks for your feedback.

Due to the privacy of the browser, playing audio automatically will cause errors. Listen to the auto-play-audio-failed event will catch the timing, and provide a feedback popper to make the user interact with the page.

Thanks
Vic

Ok, but after prompting the user to interact should i call mediaStream.startAudio() again?
Thanks.

Seem fixed. I just tested on latest safari 15.4 ipad iOS and audio now works but still doesn’t work for Google Chrome iOS.
