VP9 (and VP8) are only hardware accelerated on Android. On iOS, you only have AVC and HEVC.

    No, definitely not on macOS. It uses the same VideoToolbox framework iOS does. You could probably write a kernel extension to add VPx support yourself tho.

      macOS Big Sur supports VP9 hardware decoding through VideoToolbox.
