PROBLEM: I wish my device audio was off... but it isn't, and I still can't get audio to play with video overlays for my ARIS games. What stupid thing am I doing wrong?
I can get the audio to work with an iPad Mini 4 but not with my iPhone 6s... I'm sure it is some hidden setting I can't find. Volume is up all the way and there is no volume/audio setting for the ARIS app itself when I look in the OS settings.
[Instead of deleting this post out of embarrassment, I figure i'll leave it up and explain how I resolved by own dumb problem in case anyone else happens upon this thread when struggling with the same issue...]
ANSWER: Take your iPhone off 'vibration' ringer mode! Even though my volume was set at max, the phone wouldn't play any sound for the video overlay because i had the slider on the side of my phone set to 'silent' so that it would only vibrate when ringing at work... Duh.
