Webapp - Play in background #17

Closed reinierrr closed 2 years ago

reinierrr commented 2 years ago

Thus far its only possible to play music continuously using Safari.

I added Snaeplayer to my homescreen. It works like an app, however when leaving the screen or putting the iPhone to sleep the music stops playing.

From what I understand this is a limitation for web apps in iOS, but I’m reading also contradicting messages saying it’s possible to play music in the background from a web app.

Would be great if this is possible (in the future) to add the functionality while using it as an app from the home screen.
