There could be several reasons why a Youtube video is not automatically playing on mobile devices with React:

  1. Autoplay may not be enabled: Autoplay is disabled on mobile devices to conserve data usage and preserve battery life. This could be the reason why the video is not playing automatically.

  2. Browser restrictions: Some browsers, such as Safari on iOS, prevent autoplay of videos that do not meet certain conditions, such as having no sound, having been previously played, or having been added to the user's home screen.

  3. Cross-origin restrictions: Due to security concerns, many browsers prevent videos from playing automatically if they are embedded in a page from a different domain than the video source.

  4. JavaScript errors: If there are errors in the JavaScript code that controls the video player, it could prevent the video from playing automatically.
