Web Direct on iPadOS. Screen refreshes constantly

[looter]

Using web direct on iPad for the 1st time with iPadOS and pretty much a nightmare of constant screen redraws.

Can anyone confirm they’re seeing similar issues? Can’t use Go as need Base Elements. 

Any techniques to limit screen redraw on Web Direct?

iPadOS draws editing tools at the bottom of screen when the user is editing a field. I’m theorizing Web Direct is dealing with this extremely poorly.

Could be a compatibility issue. iPadOS is new and has a few changes compared to previous releases. FMv18 was released well before iPadOS. Did it work as expected on previous iOS releases?

What do you need BE do on the iPad? Maybe using GO and use scripts on the server to handle BE?

Found the answer from FileMaker. Safari on iPadOS is defaulted to ‘Request Desktop Website’ and FM does not handle this well. The workaround is changing the preference for Safari to ‘Request Mobile Website’ for any web direct websites.

what is the purpose of using Web Direct on iPad instead of FileMaker Go?
