mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction deprecated and iOS 9

Question

WKWebViewConfiguration:

• mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction has been deprecated since iOS 9

  In WKWebViewConfiguration:

  @available(iOS, introduced: 8.0, deprecated: 9.0)
  open var mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction: Bool
  

  And specified by Apple

  mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction

  Deprecated property. Instead, use mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback

WKWebViewConfiguration:

• According to Apple's documentation mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback is only for iOS 10+.

  In WKWebViewConfiguration:

  @available(iOS 10.0, *)
  open var mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback: WKAudiovisualMediaTypes
  

So here is my question:

as mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction is deprecated for iOS 9, and mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback is only for iOS 10+, what can I use for iOS 9?

Answer 1

There is a property on the WKWebViewConfiguration object you initialize your WKWebView with named requiresUserActionForMediaPlayback.

It was so obvious that I missed it... Thank you, you deserved your points! ;) – Alpers

Yeah, my code (Objective-C) looks something like this now: if ( @available(iOS 10.0, *) ) { configuration.mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback = WKAudiovisualMediaTypeNone; } else { if ( @available(iOS 9.0, *) ) { configuration.requiresUserActionForMediaPlayback = NO; } else { #pragma clang diagnostic push #pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wdeprecated-declarations" configuration.mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction = NO; #pragma clang diagnostic pop } } – Nevanevada
