Audio stops playing when screen locks

[dilon_perera]

Hi @jannava,

Edit : I tested a app that has a audio player ( PWA/not published) and when my screen locks or when I lock my screen the audio still plays. I have a Android phone.

I think when it’s a native app it will play when the screen locks also.

Background play / lockscreen play for audio player

Hi there, What are the current limitations on having audio playing when User navigates to another screen User locks the screen after clicking play My app is a meditation app so the reflex of clicking play and then locking the screen / the screen automatically locking after a few seconds while you meditate is to be expected. Thank you!

Maybe you can download this app made by Mark and check it. I checked it and when my screen locks the audio still plays.
