Play video automatically without going over your data limit

摘要

Videos don't play automatically in the BBC News app (unlike in Facebook), which is good news if you're on limited mobile data. But it means you're always having to press Play, which makes the app fiddly - unnecessarily so if you only ever connect using your home Wi-Fi. Change the settings to make video play automatically, but only on Wi-Fi. Tap the three dots at the top right, Settings, then 'Allow videos to automatically...' and then tap 'On Wi-Fi only'. If you have unlimited mobile data (and you're absolutely sure it's unlimited), tap 'On Wi-Fi or mobile network' so you never have to press Play, whatever connection you're on.
