man i wish this app worked correctly. hide controls doesn't work they are still there, very ugly for what im trying to accomplish. i found a video on youtube that accomplishes what im looking for, but its a alot of work adding a section in the code library creating some custom css. id rather sprnd an hour for each video then put up with what this app claims but way under delivers on.

This generally works, except for videos in product gallery. Tried to get support from the app developers but they didn't even bother to reply. Will be using another app.

Seriously, thank you and wow! I have been going crazy trying to get my videos to autoplay with the Sense theme. It's like if you don't have Dawn, no one can help adjust the code. I have wasted so much time trying to figure this out and I can't figure out why Shopify made autoplay so difficult. Well, problem solved!!! Seriously, this app is a quick download, you turn it on, and then your videos autoplay. Completely worth the small cost for this app. If you've been crazy like I was, your solution is right here. So grateful!

Does not work on all browsers such as Firefox Desktop for Mac (115.7.0esr 64-bit), which is the most current version at the time of this review. Hopefully, they'll fix this.

I struggled for months, reaching out to support and external developers to add this feature of autoplay, until I found this app. Thank you so much Adam for all your help with my requests (the support is so amazing that they developed 3 new features based on some suggestions of improvement I sent!). Overall this is the first paid app I purchased for my store and I couldn't be happier with Adam's help and overall quality of the service. Thank you Adam and team

De app doet precies wat ik wilde. Namelijk sfeerbeelden (Video's) zonder geluid automatisch laten afspelen op de site. de afspeelknoppen en overige video controls kwamen wel in beeld, maar dit kan worden uitgezet in App Embeds in Shopify. Ik kwam hierachter na de super snelle hulp van Adam. Ik ben tevreden. Bedankt Adam.

This app is amazing and SO easy to use. I really wanted the videos on my product pages to auto play but the only way to do it was to edit the code which I couldn't do. All I did was install this app and within seconds my website was auto playing videos. It really elevates my website. This app is a MUST download!!!
