    • Another participant suggested a free Shopify app (“VDO Product Video Feed”) that they state can handle autoplay requirements.

  • Status: Unresolved and likely ongoing, pending the store details or feedback on whether the shared tutorial or the suggested app achieved autoplay in the Sense theme.

Hi,

I’m using the Sense theme and want to set a video to autoplay on my store without requiring users to press play. Has anyone implemented this feature before?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
