Watching movies on TV App - how can the movie automatically play after rewinding/ fastwording?

Hi,


I’ll try to make sense with this question as much as possible.


So on my iPad 7, I have the TV App where I play downloaded movies/ TV Shows and content synced from my laptop.


I notice that after I rewind/ fast forward on a movie, it doesn’t automatically resume playing and I have to tap the Play button.


This is really a small problem, but I like to know if I can configure it so movies automatically resume playing without having to tap, please.


Sharee

Hey there Sharee7799,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you have a question about the Apple TV app controls. We're happy to provide some assistance.


As mentioned under the "Rewind or fast-forward" section of Control what’s playing in the Apple TV app:


"Rewind or fast-forward continuously: Press and hold the left or right button to rewind or fast forward, or press either button repeatedly to cycle through rewind or fast-forward speed options (2x, 3x, 4x). Press the center or play button to resume playback."


If you would like to see features added in the future, you can provide Apple feedback here:

We hope this helps.


Have a great day!
