There are many examples on the internet with a working video background on android and ios devices:
Webflow designer should be upgraded to get background video working on any devices. This is critical because this will be the web standard very soon.
Please!
Most background videos do not autoplay on mobile devices due to mobile device constraints. However, as far as I know, some videos do play in latest versions of mobile software/browsers if they are in an appropriate format and size like small mp4s files.
For example, I can see the video play on your site d-still.com which is made in Webflow in both Chrome and Safari on an iPhone.

I believe it’s a browser/mobile issue and not a limitation of the Webflow background video component.
Ciao Anna,
if you check the same site, published inside the webflow hosting ( http://d-still-bye-bye.webflow.io ) you will see that the video background doesn’t work on mobile.
To make it work i’ve exported the code and then i’ve substituted the video with my own compressed video.
I think that this problem can be related to the video compression process inside webflow…
