Video keeps trying to play on app

@mnhq When I'm scrolling down any of the main root pages - active, specific boards etc - on the app (iphone), a video player pop up opens with a blank clip in. Nothing plays and there's no thumbnail, but I have to press cancel to go back to whatever I was browsing. It's very irritating!

Yes I have this too it's so annoying. And this is on the latest version of the app on iPhone

Oh and yes, my app is up to date with that version.

It just does this. Did it to me just now on the iPhone app while reading a thread.

Hi @Useranon1 and everyone else,

Sorry for the delay here. This sounds pretty annoying so we're looking into this now.

@LolaSparkle , @memyselfi , @otherusername are you all using the iPhone app as well? Can we please also check that you all have the latest version of the site installed? Version 4.4.16 is the one you're after, so please check if you need to update it.

If anyone's able to post a screenshot that would be very helpful - or alternatively you could send it to us at [email protected].
