Hi have noticed video does not auto play on safari 11 anymore. Below is my code it works on Chrome as it has to be muted. It just shows the poster image. Any Help.
Many apps and services allow videos to auto-play on the iPhone. This feature is sometimes convenient, but can also be very distracting. Thankfully, it's very easy to turn off auto-playing videos on an iPhone that's running iOS 11 or later. Here's how to do it. If your iPhone is running the latest version of iOS 13, the setting to disable auto-playing videos is in your Accessibility settings. You can turn off the auto-play setting to prevent videos from auto-playing in any of the native Apple apps, including Safari. 1. Start the Settings app. 2. Tap "Accessibility." 3. Tap "Motion." 4. On the Motion page, turn off "Auto-Play Video Previews" by swiping the button to the left.

After turning this off, you should find that all native Apple apps stop auto-playing video.
But it's possible to control the auto-playing videos settings for iTunes and the App Store separately. See the next section for more details.
Before iOS 13, you only had the option to disable auto-playing videos in iTunes and the App Store — this setting doesn't extend to Safari or other Apple apps.
This setting remains in iOS 13, and if you want to control iTunes and the App Store separately from other auto-play settings, you can do that here.
1. Start the Settings app.
2. Tap "iTunes & App Store."
3. Tap "Video Autoplay."

4. Tap "Off."

Goings nuts over here — cannot figure out how to disable video autoplay in Safari.
Never did this on my iOS 14 XR.
Tried Settings > Accessibility > Motion but video autoplay was already disabled there.
Anyone have a solution or am I just missing something obvious?

Some websites—and others who provide those sites with content, including advertisers—automatically play video when you visit their site. Muting tabs and windows is a quick and temporary solution, but you can permanently block video for an individual website or for all websites.
