Shareplay content is paused when returning from background (picture in picture or locked screen)
Shareplay content (streaming using AVPlayer) is paused when returning from background to foreground (picture in picture or locked screen) This only happen for one participant who initiated transition from background to foreground, all other participants have their content playing fine which leads to off sync between participants, content sync again if trigger player.play() for the participant who experienced the issue using playback position from other participants. How can I prevent content paused after returning from background to foreground. P.S: Without SharePlay active session content is not paused with same scenario.

SharePlay in-app navigation
when is it appropriate to listen for activity sessions if my app has multiple screens? Lets say I have an app Main Screen -> List of videos Screen -> Player screen Few cases that I would like to combine: Two people on a call, both have app closed: If I start session inside Player, other participant will open an app on main screen how do I navigate it to the player initially? Should I start listening for activity session on the main screen already and then if session is observed I need to set navigation stack and join session side player when it opens? Two people on a call, both have app opened and watching different contents: If I start session inside Player, other participant will replace it's current playing item with one that is shared how to combines this two cases with one implementation? Or SharePlay is not meant to be leading you right to the player screen when shareplay starts, and users should open same content manually before shareplaying?
