[SOLVED] Can I play background music with confirm() in js?

When I try it normally it gives an error that play() function can only be initiated by user gesture... But I did kind of the same thing in this code of mine... but with swal alert https://code.sololearn.com/W153Wjsx8oFM/?ref=app

From What I've seen, confirm is not counted as a user gesture. You need an event (touchstart,click etc) for that. Swal alert is actually an HTML element which you are clicking (user gesture).

Kode Krasher i agree with you but the whole point is autoplay here and that's not a " browser " issue its actually a "feature" of google ie android You can autoplay in Ios with some simple hacks but in android its not possible """ https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2016/07/autoplay """ You could read this And yeah i know about raw and dl i just wanted to demonstrate that custom alert thanks 😊 for pointing that out
