How to play media (video) in locked screen (Android)

Hi.

Is there a way to allow media (in this case video) to keep playing when you've locked you (Android) phone? I know there's a solution for iPhones, but that doesn't apply in this case. There doesn't seem to be any options for this in the Canvas settings (be it in the app or system settings).

 

Anyone got any bright ideas? I've tried googling, but the closest thing I've found is a couple of dodgy third-party apps that mainly focuses on allowing YouTube playback (which don't work in this case).

 

  • Canvas Student: version 6.10.0 (newest version)
  • Android: version 10. (newest version)
  • Phone: Samsung Galaxy Note 9
