Hi, I have an issue with video sound: All the videos start autoplaying, but muted by default on my iphone (both chrome and safari browsers), which is really annoying. I cannot find any setting to control the sounds. Is there a way to fix this?

It's best to post this type of site-related technical question in the "Guitar Tricks Site" forum where it is certain to be seen by GT tech support personnel.

I agree, pinestone! It would be great if you didn't need to stop playing or restart the lesson because you missed the first few seconds of audio. Seems a silly thing that should be easy enough to fix(i hope).

It's not GT. It's your browser settings.

Check here.

The instructions work for mac (and i guess pc as well), but the problem is how to do it on an [u]iphone[/u]. I think it's iphone ios problem and I've found 0 way of controlling it...

Check here.

For Firefox, this webpage gives better instructions; it shows how to allow just certain websites to play sound automatically, instead of allowing all websites: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/block-autoplay.
