Background Video Component Issue on iOS with Low Power Mode

At a glance

Hi,

I am having an issue with the background video component:

On IOS > chrome > when low power mode is enabled:

1. The video doesn't play automatically
2. The play button is displayed
3. The play button cannot be clicked

Could reproduce on several iPhones.

Expected behavior:
The play button should not be visible and the video should play automatically.

Is anyone having the same issue? Not sure if it's Relume or webflow related, to be honest.

Unfortunately there's no real way of avoiding this. When iPhones are on low power mode they stop videos autoplaying. It's the IOS doing this, not Webflow/Relume.

Thanks ! Kinda tricky to fix then if the video has an overlay....interesting choice from apple

It is! Just have to live with it 🥹 or if anyone has a solution, please let me know haha
