Reset to default 6There is a property on UIWebView called mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction which defaults to YES. Change it to NO.
Apple and Google decided to allow autoplay in their mobile browsers. But only if videos are muted. On iOS you also have to set the playsinline attribute, because by default videos will play fullscreen.
To get autoplay use the following setup:
<video controls autoplay loop muted playsinline>
<source src="video.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="video.webm" type="video/webm">
</video>
