Hi,

Testing all possibilities Corona offers, two questions came to my mind about the audio API, and I couldn’t find any answer yet :

  • Is it possible to “force” sounds when the user “mute” its device ? I know some iOs apps who can do it, so I was wondering if it was possible with Corona (in case of sounds necessary for the game, obviously).

  • Is it possible to completely mute other app’s musics and sounds ? It’s quite uncomfortable to play a background music if the player already had a youtube video or its Deezer music running in background, so I wondered if it was possible to mute it, or if it’s the player’s responsibility to stop it ?

As far as I know, with the starndard audio API neither is possible (force sounds, and mute other apps).

But if as you say there are other apps that do it, then you as enterprise user can probably do it as well…
