If we have a QLPreviewController with video file inside, the video is loaded is a paused state. The user has to tap on play icon to make it play. I can't find any (legal) programmatic way to play the video, is there anything?

There is no public API for this (according to documentation).
There is workaround with private API usage, but in this case app can be rejected by Apple:
Iterate through subviews in QLPreviewController, find "play" button, and tap on it programatically.

Although you said it may be rejected, I'd like to stress point that it is a private API and the use of such is prohibited by Apple. Thus, would strongly recommend not to do it in a production app. Anyway, I will leave the question in case it'll change or someone will think of a workaround. Thank you for your answer. – Nat Dec 15 '20 at 11:28
