Hey, I've tried multiple things but there doesn't seem to be a very straightforward method to do this. This is due to autoplay rules enforced by chrome.

The HTML5

A quick work around for this would be to change your user agent with webViewProps. I just pushed this with a minor path version of 1.1.3

<YoutubePlayer
        width={380}
        height={250}
        play={true}
        webViewProps={{
          userAgent:
            'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/77.0.3865.90 Safari/537.36',
        }} 
/>

Let me know if this works. Thanks :)

Hey, try adding mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction: false to webViewProps, like -

webViewProps={{
          userAgent:
            'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/77.0.3865.90 Safari/537.36',
          mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction: false,
        }}
