Hello, all. The recent Reddit update has turned me off, so I migrated here. So far, I’m enjoying this app, but there’s one thing bothering me: I can’t play any videos here?
A video post won’t auto-play, and doesn’t react at all when I click on the video, although I can upvote (is it called that here?) and read comments. I checked settings and don’t see anything about videos.
I’m using the latest iOS software on iPhone 16 if that’s important for whatever reason.
That depends on multiple things, foremost the app you’re using and how the video is added to the post.
Might also be that wherever the video is hosted is just slow.
I forgot to name the app: Blorp.
I doubt that the video is slow because I’ve tried a couple and all that were embedded didn’t play. If they were linked to YouTube or whatever, those would play.
Hi I’m the developer behind Blorp. If you link me the post where the video isn’t showing up, I’ll see if I can fix it. Thanks for using Blorp!

Thanks for taking a look! I’m enjoying Blorp so far.
Ahh there are some limitations with embeding loops videos specifically. Still you should see a link out to the video that opens the loops.video website. Seems like it might be more broken then that, so I’ll look into it.
