Let’s Make One of Those Fancy Scrolling Animations Used on Apple Product Pages: https://t.co/IJ2VcWCbSO. Definitely keep the final remark in the article in mind: be wasteful only if you can afford it (rephrasing mine).
@jyasskin @slightlylate I was about to point to https://t.co/q7tCscGMLE, but have personally never been able to get it to work on iOS >12. It’s nice in theory, though, or at least for devices on old builds.
@simevidas @anssik Since the workaround to achieve the same behavior (i.e., playing an invisible video) doesn’t require permission, we made the API permission-less, and gave it a predictable lifecycle: https://t.co/1PtE0ciPut.
@simevidas That’s fair feedback. Compatibility is mentioned in https://t.co/fTYuRbDrmV, but yes, it might be clearer.
