Demo https://bfred-it.github.io/iphone-inline-video/demo/ (and my local video) doesn't start play at iphone 5, 5s, SE with IOS 10

What iOS version and what browser?

SG5 commented 7 years ago

iOS 10 with safari

iphone-inline-video is only for iOS 8 and 9 and it's automatically disabled on iOS 10.

iOS 10 Safari supports inline playback natively with the playsinline attribute: https://github.com/bfred-it/iphone-inline-video#notes-about-ios-10

If it doesn't work there's probably a network error and either way unrelated to iphone-inline-video. Does this video load for you? https://rawgit.com/bower-media-samples/big-buck-bunny-480p-30s/master/video.mp4

On all 4+ inch devices with ios 10 autoplay work fine

It's probably a coincidence, there doesn't seem to be anything regarding device compatibility in the official announcement: https://webkit.org/blog/6784/new-video-policies-for-ios/
