Landing page won’t load automatically?
I noticed as of today, that my Pages Kit background videos/wallpapers weren’t loading exactly like they used to. It’s a very small thing, but I thought to post it, because it did load normally just the other day😅
To explain what I mean, I’ll show below!👇
You’ll notice at the very beginning of the video (seconds 0-3) it shows the “play” icon in the center of the wallpaper. And after I click on one of the tabs, and then return back to my home page, it loads correctly, and automatically (seconds 7-14) It’s subtle, but you can see the clouds slightly rotating around the tower, and then repeating on a loop. The way it appears upon returning to the home page, is how it normally would, and I’m not sure how to change that back?😂 So any help in doing so would be appreciated!
Here’s another example to show what I mean:
As shown in the second video, which is located in a different app (my oblivion one) the wallpaper doesn’t load, but then does after entering and leaving a blog.
I also made sure to check that my blocklets were up to date, to rule out any possible issue there. And I tried restarting the app too.

Hey there! I just wanted to let you know that I checked out your website on both my PC and phone, and everything loaded perfectly with the background video playing automatically. I didn't see any play buttons either. I tried using DID Wallet and Safari but couldn't replicate the issue 😂. Can you provide some more information? Like what system version you're using, and if you're accessing the site through Safari or another app? Thanks!
What!!??💀 Of course it only messes up when I look at it🤣 Thanks for checking into it for me!
More information:
If we can’t exactly change it on my end, then it’s no big deal, just as long as it looks right when other’s visit it🫡💯
That was my main concern, so I appreciate you verifying that it does load automatically!!
update: it works normal on my computer😅 so it’s gotta be my phone acting up💀
It's probably because your phone is in low power mode, which disables auto-play for videos.
Oh my gosh!!😅🤦🏼♂️ That’s exactly what it was, I just turned it off and now it loads fine lol!! Thank you for pointing that out to me🙏
Latest Update: We have successfully resolved the issue and suggest upgrading to the latest version v0.2.393 of pages-kit for an improved user experience. This update includes support for automatic playback of background videos in low power mode and enhances overall performance on iOS devices.
Okay cool!! My foolishness somehow managed to be useful in the end😂🫡
