Okay, I have a couple of posts, as I am trying to get comfortable with thunkable x. I have searched the community and not found anything specific to these issues.
This one is about music. I added a song to my app that I want to play while user is accessing the app.
It works fine except:
When I close (ie minimize, like to go to another app, browser, etc.), the music keeps playing. It also starts to ‘double up’ , as in the song plays over itself as I leave/enter the app.
I am using ‘onsourceloaded’ function to call the song to play.
Ideally, I would like a song to play continually while user is enjoying the app, looping. And, it should pause or start over when a user leaves the app and start again when user returns to the app. (Most apps/games have such a theme song that plays in the background while user is playing)
Anyone have any success with such an endeavor? Appreciate any input.
Thanks
Roger

Just to add info regarding my issue with sound in my project: when I access the app on my IPad, the sound DOES stop when I leave the app to go to another program.
However the sound will not stop when I leave the app using my android phone. But when I receive a phone call on my android phone and have left the app, the sound will stop then.
Naturally I want the theme song of the app to only play when I am accessing the app. Anyone else have this issue, or know how to ensure the sound only plays when I am using the app? Note I am using an mp3 file with the sound component, using the “When onsourceloaded” function.
Please advise if anyone has had this issue and/or can advise a solution.
Thank you!
Roger
Hi Roger,
We are getting the same behaviour as you are describing.
Can you please share with me if you got a solution for this?
Many thanks in advance.

Is it really a sensible thing to ask someone for a solution 2 years after they last posted in this topic?
Create a new topic, explain what should be happening, and what happens instead. Show your blocks. Then maybe you’ll get an answer.
