We share our tweets a link to a page with Youtube video and interactive web experience. When the video is played in IOS it goes automatically to fullscreen unlike in regular Safari or Facebook App.
As we provide the interactive experience that accompanies the video the fullscreen is extremly counterproductive and is a showstopper.
We understand that this is hapening becasue in Twitter’s app the UIWebViews is not seting allowsInlineMediaPlayback to true. See Youtube documentation at https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameter and specifically:
This parameter controls whether videos play inline or fullscreen in an HTML5 player on iOS. Valid values are:
0: This value causes fullscreen playback. This is currently the default value, though the default is subject to change.
1: This value causes inline playback for UIWebViews created with the allowsInlineMediaPlayback property set to TRUE.
Does Twitter has plans to address this issue any time soon?
Thanks
This question is not related to the API Roadmap so we are unable to address it here. This forum exists to help developers with API questions.
We cannot offer any assistance with issues related to accounts (suspension, verification, usernames etc), or usage of the twitter.com website, analytics or ads dashboards, and the iOS and Android mobile apps in this forum.
