Additionally, I the mobile device I am using is the iPhone 7.
HI @aakrealtor
Can you please share the website URL?
Can you please flush the WP Rocket cache? Seems like a cached version (without the registration of SuperPWA files) is delivering at my end.
I flush the WP Rocket cache, the Cloudflare cache and the iPhone 7 browser cache in that order and it has no effect on the issue I am experiencing.
Hi @aakrealtor
The PWA is working perfectly over the Android device right now. Regarding orientation and display settings, both won’t work over iPhone, as its not even supported by iOS till this moment.
Hi Jose,
Just a quick update. The display
feature worked perfectly until I
upgraded to iOS 13.7. That new
iteration of Apple’s operating
system stopped treating PWA apps
as apps and began treating them as
websites. Whenever I launched my
app using your plugin, it would
appear both in my browser and in
the app container and looked and
functioned like a website. Then I
upgraded the iOS to 14.1 today and
it is clear that Apple recognized
the problem and partially corrected
it. When I launch the app now, it is
no longer simultaneously launched in
the browser. The home page appears in
the container created by your plugin
without an address bar. However, when
I launch any other page, the address
bar reappears with one change. In the
left corner of the address bar a
“done” button appears. When it is
clicked the address bar disappears. I
expect that this is an interim fix.
However, I have consulted with senior
support at Apple and they have sent
this issue to their engineers for
review. I expect a response this week,
but suspect they will punt the ball to
their next upgrade. I can keep you
posted if you are interested.
Thanks a lot for sharing more details @aakrealtor . Actually, I didn’t have an iPhone to test it out, I usually test PWA features over my friends iPhones and as due to the current pandemic I meet those friends very infrequently.
Hope you will update this thread with more details so that people like me can learn and update how PWA works now on iOS 🙂
Have a great day and stay safe!
I now have a solution and the PWA app is working perfectly on my iPhone in standalone mode once again. It appears IOS support for for PWA technology was not the issue at all. Instead, it was a network settings issue which prevented my iPhone from properly communication with my website. I simply reset the network on my iPhone and the plugin immediately began functioning correctly.
Awesome! Good to hear about that @aakrealtor
