      @shiroe I have the same issue as you and would be grateful for a resolution. I suppose the issue is related to the old Safari version on iOS 9.3.5. I’d also accept a workaround that requires a jailbreak of the iPad 2.

        @shiroe Mobile Safari on iOS 9.3 is obviously missing some features. If a module is using a function not supported by this version of Mobile Safari a black screen might happen.

        You only can debug this using Mac.

          @idoodler FYI default modules only it still shows the same, I have a bit more time tomorrow so I’ll try reducing one by one to see if i can find exactly which doesn’t work - though I feel it’s likely going to be all of them

            Same problem here… iPad 2 with iOS 9.3.5 and I’m getting a black screen… I tried with Google Chrome, Dolphin Browser but no good luck.
            A work around: Install VNC Server on RPi, and a client on the iPad. Go to fullscreen mode, and voila!

              @pipe-line I think we have an iOs 9 device at work. I will debug it tomorrow night. What modules do you have installed?

                @idoodler I started with Current Weather and Weather Forecast and then only with Current Weather, but no lucky.
                Thanks!

                      Lol. This issue has already been fixed on the 8th of April 2018 by Chris Pickett. It is available on the develop branch. It eventually will be merged with the masterbranch.
