Found similar thing other day [0] but thing is.. If this is not an App it's not usable. People tend to listen this while resting (in bed for example) so makes no sense have this in browser. For example [0] stops playing when screen is off/locked

OK to reply to myself, after testing it, this one does work while phone screen is off so this is usable. Thanks

Yeah, it's actually surprisingly tricky to get sound to persist with the screen off, especially on iOS, but I managed it in the end.

I'm testing a PWA version at the moment too so it'll be installable to your home screen - the test version at https://test.ambiph.one is PWA-enabled if anyone would like to try it out

Yeah, this is even better. Maybe add 'reset' button that will reset all sounds to "not selected".
