It’s how you can still watch a YouTube video when your device is set to silent. You’d also find that with the new update, music will stop when you start an ad, whereas it didn’t before. It’s been reclassified under iOS. Before it was game sound, but now it’s video. It’s not overriding your device settings. It’s a feature of them. OK this makes sense in terms of explanation. I also have and Apple watch and I get the play/pause/fast forward etc options on the screen and was wondering why (I knew it was related to ads but didn't know how). Also, I'm still not sure this logic by Apple makes sense, but it is what it is and life is short.
