We have a single page app written in HTML/Javascript and our customers are experiencing intermittent freezes when using HTML select drop downs on Safari on iPads in all versions of iOS 15, but not on iOS 14 or earlier. Freezes often seem to occur when coming out of sleep mode. Closing Safari and reopening fixes the problem, but its still an inconvenience if input hasn't been saved etc. We have some legacy jQuery Mobile drop downs, but the problem occurs both with those and with plain JS ones.
We've tried restarting machines, checking storage, turning off any Safari extensions, turning off GPU Process Canvas Rendering (which seems to be on by default in iOS 15) and more. It doesn't seem to be specific to particular models as users have a wide range of these.
I know the UI of select elements was changed in iOS 15 - has anyone else experienced problems with this?
