Hi, I have sound blocks in my code and they work on the web preview but no luck on the IOS live test [Thunkable](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/904fc02626f7709f3c82edb3e4b07c6a).

Is your iPhone set to Silent mode perhaps? On my iPhone 7S it is a switch on the side of the device.

Nope, I flicked that switch but no sound. I should mention the laser sound DOES play. That’s the only one though.

Make sure your filenames don’t have spaces and are (preferably) using just a-z and 0-9 characters:

I am sorry, this sounds like a different problem and your app seems to have plenty. Can you open another project in the Thunkable Live app?
