The screen wakelock option, which is visible in browsers with this capability, will allow playlists to run without being killed of by mobile devices. Unfortunately GOOG & AAPL do not offer the ability to acquire a system wakelock at present, which would allow the screen to turn off, however dark mode is used to minimize battery drain. The m3u and xspf playlist links above will provide a playlist that will play without breaking. m3u works on iphone with no additional apps. Android needs a second party app like VLC . Plugging mobile devices into a power source and connecting to wifi also most often causes them to allow playlists to play without interuption.
