Q: WebApp not working properly after adding to home screen
Hello guys!
Before I present the issue, I think it's important to tell you that I'm not an iPhone user and have little knowledge on how to operate with one. That being said, here's the issue we are facing: We have this web app that works fine on all major smartphone's browsers. Recently we figured that Chrome and Safari lets you add web sites to the home screen. The end result is like a hybrid app with no browser URL and all. On Safari, though, we noticed that weird things happens. Some features just don't work and sometimes, caching doesn't recycle even after clearing it. We also tried to remove the icon and create it again, but that didn't solve the issue...
My question is: Is there an interface to "communicate" with this "hybrid app"?
If somehow Safari keeps logs or any relevant information regarding this icon-to-home-screen feature, it would help greatly understand the issue.
Note: If this question is off-topic, could you point out where I can find support for this?
Thanks in advance,
Edielton
