The sooner Safari on iPad gets better (Apple should be doing everything they can to make it easy for web apps to adapt), the better. The hardware has never been this good but the fact remains that web apps are an integral part of the real world.

@bradenslen They might do! Unfortunately I think most people can't usually spare the time and energy for managing this kind of thing. Safari has a fighting chance against Chrome and Edge purely because it's the default option in iPhone.

@simonwoods I was wondering: since Apple forces all other iOS browsers to use Safari's rendering engine on iOS, if the web apps work with FF but not Safari, then we can eliminate the rendering engine as the problem and focus on the stuff Apple has built around the rendering engine to create Safari.

@simonwoods I agree on your second point. Apple seems more worried first and foremost on how well Safari works on iOS and not how well the web browser actually works on the Web. They have their priorities all muddled, but as long as Apple has control they don't care about anything else.
