Issue Description
The app exhibited one or more bugs that would negatively impact App Store users.
Bug description:
after we entered the provided credentials, an activity indicator was spinning indefinitely and we were unable to use the app
Review device details:
Device type: iPad Air (5th generation)
OS version: iOS 17.4.1
What have I done
So basically Apple is saying that there are issues with https requests that they are making when on App review
The problem is that it always works for me. I've tested on TestFlight on my iPhone and there's no issue. When I directly download the app from the app store in my mac, it works as well.
I've checked the backend logs during the time that the reviewer were checking my app, and there's not a single request made to the mobile login endpoint.
My backend infrastructure, which is hosted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) in the United States, is configured without any IP-based geolocation blocking or regional access controls. I've tried using a VPN, and even asked to a friend to make a request from the US using Postman. It always worked.
I've tried putting a network checker just after the login attempt. It warns and shows a toast saying that there's no internet connection. Not allowing the request to be made.
I've implemented a timeout in the requests. I started with a 12s timeout. I went progressively downwards with 8s and 4s timeouts in my submissions, and all the submissions were rejected.
I've tried to reach Apple to give me more details about the environment that these networks are made, anything about the error itself. I went to both a Rejection Appeal and a reply to App review, and all that they gave me was the device type and the OS version.
If anyone has any tips or insights on debugging this issue, especially in scenarios involving App Store review processes where the behavior differs from other environments like TestFlight or direct downloads, I would really appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to proceed.

In iOS version 17.4 and above, we have observed that the following code works fine upon the initial opening. However, after minimizing the page and reopening it, there is a chance of encountering issues with abnormal lines.
Please note the reproduction conditions: try minimizing the page, opening other apps, and then reopening it multiple times.
The code is in the comments section.

I have a web site that uses CSS linear-gradient with color-mix for a background of a division. It shows up just fine in Safari on iOS and iPadOS 17.4.1. When do a screenshot, and select "Full Page", the background-image becomes all black and the text in the division is unreadable.
Here is an example of what I am doing.
div.ugly
{
background-image: linear-gradient(to right, yellow, color-mix(in srgb, red, blue));
}
Any ideas how to get this to not turn black?
I've tried using a print media query but the "Full Page" screenshot does not use that.
It looks like it might be a bug in iOS/iPadOS.
Thanks,
Mike

Hello,
I've encountered an issue with the scrollbar functionality on my webpage specifically when accessed through Safari. Despite its functionality on other browsers and devices, Safari on iOS 14 displays only the native scrollbar during scrolling, contrary to the desired behaviour of consistently showing the scrollbar.
&::-webkit-scrollbar {
height: 2px;
}
&::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
background-color: "white";
margin-left: 4px;
margin-right: 4px;
}
&::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background: "orange";
}
}

First: don’t tell me about webkit-reporting. I just get a 502 from there!

#ext { display: none; }
#dft { display: block; }
}
&:has(p.ext:target) {
#ext { display: block; }
#dft { display: none; }
}
&.ext li { display: none; }
&:has(.ext:target) {
& li.ext { display: revert; }
}
}
header > p > a::before { color: orange; content: "click me >>> "; }
ul { display: flex; }

Hi,
After iOS 17 software update, we've encountered an anomaly with the video element within our videojs player. Upon video load, there's a noticeable shift and recentring of the video to its correct position.
This issue becomes more pronounced when the player is in a horizontal orientation while the video being played is vertical.
Additionally, we've observed resizing and cropping issues during the initialization of the player, which were not present in earlier versions. In our current implementation, we have a canvas element inserted before the player. Due to resizing, the video sticks to the canvas and fails to return to the correct position.
<div>
<video class="vjs-tech"
webkit-playsinline
playsinline
src="hls video source">
</video>
<canvas style="filter: blur(15px)" class="vjs-tech custom-canvas" width="412" height="320">
</canvas>

Hello,
I am looking for help with displaying Smart Banners on mobile devices. What is the preferred coding that can have Smart Banners appear on all devices? I am having an issue where an Smart Banner is not properly functioning as I would like it to. I would like the CTA (Call-To-Action) to be positioned on the top of a mobile screen. If a user has the mobile app already, it should read OPEN and opens into the app when it is clicked. If the user does not have the app, it should read GET and take a user to the mobile app store when it is clicked.

overflow-x: clip;
will also apply clipping on the Y-axis.
The correct implementation of this should only affect the X-axis.
This is correctly implemented in all browsers except for Safari

Hi,
We are facing an issue in our page , The same works fine in other operating systems like android and windows.
we are facing this issue only on IOS and MAC(safari browser alone ).
We have a loader with us ,which will be shown in 2 different phases in our page. The first time loader will be shown while page is being loaded, the second loader will be shown once the user clicks on pay button.
the first loader is not giving any issues for us .But the second loader is not loading completely as you can see in the attached not working image ,the blue circle is being displayed only a 5-10%. It should start from 0 and gradually should reach 100% and again a loop.
From the analysis we could see the loader rotates fine after clicking pay button ,but once after page is submitted the issue happens
document.paypage.submit(); (code attached below) // this is the form submission in our page // once the control reaches this line we could see the loader is not working fine.
the same scenario is checked in android ,but even after page submission the loader works fine, Only in IOS and mac we are facing issue in (safari in mac other browser works fine without any issue), (all browsers in iOS).
please direct us to solve the issue

Hi,
The below code is used for loading GPay icon dynamically from Google in "WKWebView". The same code works for later versions of IOS like 16.4, but issue happens in 16.1 ,16.2 and 16.3 versions.
while loading this code from IOS 16.3 the icon (Gpay icon) is completely black, looks like it's not loaded properly. Please assist us on what can be the issue, and how we can proceed to solve the issue.

Although CanIUse reports only 3% global support for the revert-layer keyword, I've noticed that it seems to work pretty consistently within inline styles (i.e. the style attribute).
This got me thinking (hoping) that maybe browser support for revert-layer specifically within inline styles may be much better than reported. However, it's difficult to find any data since I suppose my use case is somewhat uncommon.
Can anyone comment on the state of Safari's support for revert-layer specifically within inline styles? I would be extremely grateful for any light you can shed on this.

I have a menu bar which overlays a body scroll in my PWA with styling:
position: fixed;
bottom: 0px;
This works fine after launching the PWA. In addition to scrolling my app also has a dialog overlay which is invoked many times during regular use.
The bug: After a few hours of mixed use and backgrounding the app, the position fixed bottom does not stick to the bottom of the page when scrolled down. It is almost as if there is an invisible Safari navbar that pushes the viewport up (the PWA forgets it's not in Safari? :)).
On scroll down
With the dialog open
This one is a bit tedious, but I am able to consistently reproduce it on my app following these steps and with also with a stripped down HTML:
Create a PWA app on a iOS17 device with the following html:
https://github.com/apsm100/ios17-pwa-position-fixed-bug/blob/main/index.html
Open the app and open and close the dialog a few times.
Leave the app open in the background for a few hours and periodically open it up to test scrolling up and down and opening and closing the dialog.
Eventually you will see the bug.
I am not entirely sure if the dialog has any role in this, I haven't gotten that far in testing. Since I use my app daily I would say it happens about after an hour of backgrounding and a few minutes of use.
Thank you!

Hi, I've got this html text:
"<style>* {font-size: 12pt !important;color: #000000 !important;font-family: Montserrat-Regular !important;}</style>Perform the following steps:<br><u>Option 1:</u><br><p>1) Upon receiving a push notification alert, tap on the push notification to launch BIMB Authenticator</p><p>2) Verify the transaction details and choose \"Approve\"</p><p>3) Complete</p><br><u>Option 2:</u><br><ol><p>1) If you didn’t receive push notification, you may launch BIMB Authenticator</p><p>2) Verify the transaction details and choose \"Approve\"</p><p>3) Complete</p>"
And I'm trying to show this HTML text properly in a UILabel. This is my codes:
String extension to map to NSAttributedString:
extension String {
func attributedStringFromHTML() -> NSAttributedString? {
guard let data = "\(self)"
.data(using: .utf8, allowLossyConversion: false) else {
Log.error(category: .transaction, message: "Unable to decode data from html string: %@", self)
return nil
}
let options: [NSAttributedString.DocumentReadingOptionKey: Any] = [
.documentType: NSAttributedString.DocumentType.html,
.characterEncoding: String.Encoding.utf8.rawValue
]
if let attributedString = try? NSAttributedString(data: data, options: options, documentAttributes: nil) {
return attributedString
} else {
Log.error(category: .transaction,
message: "Unable to create attributed string from html string: %@",
self)
return nil
}
}
}
And this is the result:
Can you tell me how to fix this? Thanks.

I have a Website live on http://chatwithsanta.azurewebsites.net/
It uses Flexbox to show chat messages and a chat message input.
Specifically, the Body is a flexbox container with a message screen containing messages, and a message input form at the bottom.
This layout works in Chrome on desktop, even when Chrome is set to simulate an iPhone 12 Pro layout.
But the form does not appear on my own iPhone.
What should I do?
I am new to developing native Apple apps and must familiarize myself with the Apple development frameworks. I am starting to create a personal document-based Apple App that can run on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. The document will contain the following: HTML, PDF, images, video, and audio files. So, I think the document format could be HTML.
I need the capability to read, edit (WYSIWYG Editor), save, and share documents with other users using the same app. The data is stored in the user's device and iCloud.
I need guidance about what Apple framework I should use to edit the documents using WYSIWYG editing principles.
I would really appreciate any recommendation you can provide.
Many thanks for considering my request.
Thank you so much for your attention and participation.

I’m talking about CSS-functions: https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts/css-values/#round-func)
.example {
--result: round(up, var(--number), 1);
}
In Safari 16.x css round didn’t work perfect.round(up, x, 1) did its job, if x wasn’t a “natural” number (all digits after the fraction mark 0). If it was, it resulted the next one!
Now Safari 17.0 gives 0 for all numbers!
!Update!
Sorry, Safari 17 does round! But: not in code like that:
:root { --result: round(up, var(--number), 1);
Had a project, where this was used to define the number of columns and rows I wanted for an (mostly) quadratic layout.
What’s working instead:
grid-template-columns: repeat(round(up, sort(var(--items), 1), minimal(…);
the former css used the :root-variant (grid-template-columns: repeat(var(--result) …).
!Update 2!
After some experiments I found: Safari 17 doesn’t like :root any more! (https://www.w3.org/TR/selectors-3/#root-pseudo)
And: Safari doesn’t calc correct: `round(up,1,1)˚ is 2 — says Apple. YOU MUST NOT CALC CSS-INTEGERS! CSS-DPI ist ####### ENOUGH!

I am facing an issue in scrollable components as I have a parent component and child component both are scrollable but when I get to the end of my child component then it should scroll the parent component by default but it gets stuck in the child components scroll only.
FYI, I am using reactJs if it helps in any case.
