Activate audio for videos using expo-av while iOS Silent Switch is On

Is it possible to ignore iPhone devices Silent Switch and still display audio on videos, when using expo-av library? I saw some comments on how to do it in pure React Native using a flag like ignoreSilentSwitch but this didn’t work for expo-av Video component.

Any ideas?

Something like

useEffect(() => { Audio.setAudioModeAsync({ playsInSilentModeIOS: true }); });

I just solved by adding playsInSilentModeIOS: true on my App.tsx. This was applied for the entire application:

import { Audio } from "expo-av";
...

useEffect(() => {
    ...
    Audio.setAudioModeAsync({ playsInSilentModeIOS: true });
}, []);
