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 homepage

  • Click Share icon on iOS Safari > Add to Home Screen

  • Click resulting app on Home Screen

  • Safari app loads up

These are the options I have set on my test instance re: manifest.

When you do the same with this site, what happens?

Seems to work properly. I suppose it is an issue with my specific install. Not sure what it might be though...

If you DM me the URL, I can take a look.

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! :)
