I usually play when I need absolute quiet yet for some reason your game promotion videos alway come on full blast with sound even when my phone is MUTED! Why?! The mute button means I want NO SOUND! Please fix this!!!

    I have been annoyed about this for years, and so has everyone else in my vicinity!!!! @PummyRaj maybe you could look into this and ask the team. Because this is really true. You open the App with your kid or gran taking a nap next to you, or on a crowded train, and the NOISE coming from it is deafening. It's not only that it overrides the mute setting on my device, it comes out at the loudest sound level the device can produce! It's when the Candy Crush adverts for special events play as you load the game (such as the Barbie ad or the All Stars ad) I can't understand how the game is able or allowed to override sound settings on a device, but somehow it does. NO other App or website does this. I play on an iPhone and have not found any way to stop this at all.

    This is STILL a big problem and it makes me not open the game as much anymore because if I am out in public, Iโ€™m afraid an ad might play. Is this being looked into??
