Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted January 30Jan 30 Not sure if this is a bug within v5, a bug within iOS, or just something I'm doing that I'm missing some steps on... but I'm trying to set up a PWA on my test v5 site and the resulting app icon on my Home Screen is just opening up a tab in Safari, rather than acting as its own independent app. Doesn't seem to be happening on my live v4 site, so definitely something unique to v5.Steps to replicate:Visit my test v5 site homepageClick Share icon on iOS Safari > Add to Home ScreenClick resulting app on Home ScreenSafari app loads upThese are the options I have set on my test instance re: manifest.

January 31Jan 31 Author Turns out it is something on my end (thanks for confirming, Matt!), PWA needs HTTPS (my test install is on just HTTP), so it just opens in a regular browser when that happens.Mystery solved! :)
