It is very hard to properly debug iOS bugs also.
"a problem repeatedly occurred" and page crashes all the time.
Only in Safari iOS 16. Worked in iOS 15. Works even in IE.
What kind of bug report can you make out of it?
- mh- 4y agoAttaching Safari Dev Tools from a Mac to the iOS device should surface those errors, in my experience.
- MatthiasPortzel 4y agoThis experience is wonderful in my opinion. It’s difficult to discover: you have to check Safari Settings > Advanced on your phone to enable it.
- theodorejb 4y agoWhat if you don't have a Mac?
- vxNsr 4y agoI was gonna say then how are you developing for iOS, but this is a website, so you’re right, it’s kinda ridiculous. OTOH if you’re a large enough website you should be testing on every platform.
- sccxy 4y agoSame should said to Apple. They release new API but they "forgot" to test when website is added to home screen (PWA). New API passes feature detection but does not work in PWA. iOS and macOS Safari have different bugs also... So you have to sniff user agent and other things to find out broken iOS versions and hardcode workarounds...

- ricardobeat 4y agoWhat if you don’t have Windows? In either case, there are plenty of browser testing SaaS that give you real Mac/Win/Linux/iOS/Android machines for testing and debugging.
- sccxy 4y agoMicrosoft offers free Windows 11 Virtual Machine files: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines/ https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virt...
- theodorejb 4y agoMicrosoft Edge is available for both Mac and Linux.
- sccxy 4y agoNo errors are shown when debugging this way.
