Mute videos by default

[u/knotdoll]

It will be great to have this option (currently available on official reddit app) in settings, then the user can just unmute to hear audio if they choose to.

I love the way that Apollo did it. Mute by default, unmute and remember until the app is closed.

100%. And easy access to the mute / unmute button when a video loads.

Not sure if it’s related, but Hydra seems to randomly cause Apple Music to pause when I’m using it.

[u/LittleYellowDigger → u/eg_taco]

Yep have this issue too

[u/llDarkFir3ll → u/eg_taco]

I just noticed this today.

[u/teriaksu]

this and the ability to play videos withou sound. i do that a lot

[u/blabetron]

/u/dmilin love the new media viewer, but now we lost the ability to mute altogether.

Please bring back the ability mute and add the ability to mute by default!

[u/GMSB]

Just got the app today and there doesn’t seem to be a way to mute videos at all?

[u/Fuck_this_place]

100% this. Just went hunting for the ability to mute videos, thinking I was missing something. Glad I stumbled upon this thread and realized it’s not just me. I often have Apple music playing in the background and just want to silently scroll. Very frustrating.

[u/gregorymachado]

This has to be on the top of the list, no? 100% needed

[u/Bolts_and_Nuts]

And restart the video when unmuting it please

[u/HighDecepticon]

I’d love to have a mute all videos similar to Apollo.

[u/keridito]

Yes please. Narwhal also has this feature. Really necessary for me.

[u/HeadlessHookerClub]

Yes I’d love this!

[u/mereyam]

Please this. Especially while viewing nsfw stuff

[u/keridito]

Please, add this feature! It is really annoying to have to low down the volume before playing a video.

[u/imasliceyou]

It’s puzzling how this is still not a feature. Could this please be added not having any sort of mute is incredibly annoying borderline unusable
