Twitter embeds with videos is not working on IOS
When using Twitter's JavaScript library to load tweets in a Cordova application there is an issue with tweets containing a video.
When clicking play, you are presented with a cookie popup and after that, the video never plays. We have only been able to replicate this issue in our Cordova app running on IOS.
Here is an example app that replicates the issue.
Device iPhone 8
OS Version 12.1
Cordova version 7.0.1
Unfortunately I still have the same problem: embedding twitter works fine, but when you click on the play button (of a twitter video embed), you only see the loading animation.... the video never starts.
Is there any solution to this 2.5 years later? Hope is high ;)
This sounds like a WKWebView / WebKit issue. You could try to build a repro app.
I've marked this issue as stale because it's been several years with no further comments. If this is still an issue in the latest cordova-ios version and an up-to-date iOS version, please let us know. Otherwise, this issue will be closed.
