You need to take your phone off silent.

Well, this fixed it. I bet there is a lot of confusion for the people reporting it just works, while their phone is on silent. Seems to work on silent if you have headphones on.
Interesting. I actually like this behavior and wish more applications would use it!
Having thought about it, it makes sense for the web browser. Though I think the app should do something to bypass it, but I realize it is probably just a browser embed.

I peeked at the source code and it’s pretty wild to see this is what JavaScript can do these day.

Yeah I thought it was broken on iOS too, then flipped the silent switch and it worked.
