Topic hub for sleep audio/video and background play. Spoke articles cross-link here and to Scenario A.

Bedtime listening on iPhone usually needs three things: web audio or video that keeps playing after lock, a timer that stops playback so the phone is quiet by morning, and fewer interruptions from site chrome. XBrowser pairs a built-in player with Sleep Timer for that workflow.

Honest limits
Background play depends on the site and stream format. XBrowser aims to keep supported web media playing after lock, but it is not a guarantee for every page. Sleep Timer stops playback on a schedule; it does not change network privacy. For privacy and multi-account topics, see Privacy browser for iPhone and Multiple accounts browser.
