Want to play remote url from react-native-track-payer in iOS

Question

I am using react-native-track-player for creating a music player. I am using Youtube API for audio streaming. Its give URL like

https://r2---sn-gwpa-w5py.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?expire=1612552132&ei=ZEMdYNnJDumPz7sPyrSLmAw&ip=49.36.246.217&id=o-AFQLS1cSUJ6_bXBjMOIiWk1NuIYTMUTVu4rmliPZmJCS&itag=251&source=youtube&requiressl=yes&mh=VD&mm=31%2C29&mn=sn-gwpa-w5py%2Csn-gwpa-qxaz&ms=au%2Crdu&mv=m&mvi=2&pl=21&initcwndbps=225000&vprv=1&mime=audio%2Fwebm&ns=nxhNYqBZK92ToigY08JRZjEF&gir=yes&clen=230633&dur=18.961&lmt=1524503096692151&mt=1612530050&fvip=2&keepalive=yes&c=WEB&n=UIc0qqVvrMQOjPVkP&sparams=expire%2Cei%2Cip%2Cid%2Citag%2Csource%2Crequiressl%2Cvprv%2Cmime%2Cns%2Cgir%2Cclen%2Cdur%2Clmt&sig=AOq0QJ8wRQIhAObqQA5vFYy6rJ3O3J4zswofNj2NFZOrwMF05p_PgWg9AiAmnde3njBRfvPmW_2VVA0YO1aLWQl0V3STGayuqgBRKA%3D%3D&lsparams=mh%2Cmm%2Cmn%2Cms%2Cmv%2Cmvi%2Cpl%2Cinitcwndbps&lsig=AG3C_xAwRAIgFTqy7Ng9zxhQY4GM4vP1BooPeHOf50PTikb59C67voACIGDybTTJBdLkp9lUx_-ZLdCulG_y3TH6iMhBbAn1AZR_&ratebypass=yes

But the react-native-track-player not playing audio from this URL only on iOS it's perfectly working on Android

In iOS, the react-native-track-player requires URL with .mp3 extension in the end. Can I add .mp3 to this URL or what should I do for playing audio from this link on iOS.

My code is

TrackPlayer.setupPlayer().then(() => {
    console.log('Player set')
});
TrackPlayer.add([{
    id: 'trackId1',
    url: 'https://r2---sn-gwpa-w5py.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?expire=1612552132&ei=ZEMdYNnJDumPz7sPyrSLmAw&ip=49.36.246.217&id=o-AFQLS1cSUJ6_bXBjMOIiWk1NuIYTMUTVu4rmliPZmJCS&itag=251&source=youtube&requiressl=yes&mh=VD&mm=31%2C29&mn=sn-gwpa-w5py%2Csn-gwpa-qxaz&ms=au%2Crdu&mv=m&mvi=2&pl=21&initcwndbps=225000&vprv=1&mime=audio%2Fwebm&ns=nxhNYqBZK92ToigY08JRZjEF&gir=yes&clen=230633&dur=18.961&lmt=1524503096692151&mt=1612530050&fvip=2&keepalive=yes&c=WEB&n=UIc0qqVvrMQOjPVkP&sparams=expire%2Cei%2Cip%2Cid%2Citag%2Csource%2Crequiressl%2Cvprv%2Cmime%2Cns%2Cgir%2Cclen%2Cdur%2Clmt&sig=AOq0QJ8wRQIhAObqQA5vFYy6rJ3O3J4zswofNj2NFZOrwMF05p_PgWg9AiAmnde3njBRfvPmW_2VVA0YO1aLWQl0V3STGayuqgBRKA%3D%3D&lsparams=mh%2Cmm%2Cmn%2Cms%2Cmv%2Cmvi%2Cpl%2Cinitcwndbps&lsig=AG3C_xAwRAIgFTqy7Ng9zxhQY4GM4vP1BooPeHOf50PTikb59C67voACIGDybTTJBdLkp9lUx_-ZLdCulG_y3TH6iMhBbAn1AZR_&ratebypass=yes',

  }]);
TrackPlayer.play();

Thanks in advance

Yes, your url should look something like this https://www.soundhelix.com/examples/mp3/SoundHelix-Song-1.mp3, but this means that the track you want to play has to be uploaded somewhere as a mp3 file
