Online word game loads on Android but stuck on loading screen on iPhone / iPad

Hi,


I noticed that this online word game like LetterBoxed NYT works perfectly on Android devices, but on Apple devices it sometimes gets stuck on the loading screen or takes a long time to start. I tested the same game on multiple Android phones and it loads instantly, but on iPhone or iPad it occasionally shows loading delays or blank screen.


I’m trying to understand if this is related to device software, browser settings, or compatibility with systems developed by Apple. Since the game works normally on devices using software from Google, I’m wondering if this could be a game optimization issue rather than an Apple device issue.


Do I need to install or enable any additional software or settings on Apple devices to make browser-based games load properly?


Or is this more likely caused by how the game is built or optimized for different platforms?

Any guidance would be appreciated.

iPhone 17 Pro Max
