Running into a pretty major bug people have discussed but I’ve never seen resolved. My mobile site loads perfectly on iOS Safari, Chrome, and Instagram In-App Browser.
However, when loaded on Facebook iOS In-App Browser, all formatting and dynamic data is out the door. This makes the app completely unusable.
I’ve already tried appending a unique UNIX timestamp parameter on page load to try to get around any caching, but that isn’t working and the issue persists. I’m going to have to move off of Bubble if we can’t find a fix, given my website relies on FB Mobile Traffic to work (as do most sites these days).
I have the same issue here as well. Bubble has known about this issue for 6 months plus. No announcements or acknowledgement of this issue so far yet. They have raised hundreds of millions of dollars last few months and does not have time to fix this bug or acknowledge this issue.
The fact Facebook and Instagram did a combined 103B in ad revenue in 2020 and is the 2nd largest ad platform on the market with many beginning startups using fb/ig ads to scale with other advertisers spending well over 50-100k and no truly optimized advertising strategy can be complete without fb/ig ads I gotta say this problem going untouched but known is a major issue, many people are spending without even knowing their ads aren’t displaying and losing money.
I’m curious if bubble did a report on website referer on all of the apps combined what percent would be from Facebook…
Has anyone filed an official bug report and gotten a response as to why this is behaving this way?
I know Bubble Support can get quite busy, and miss forum posts, so I’m sure a bug report would result in an official statement from a staff member. I would suggest filing one here:
I filed a report, but if others can too that’d be awesome!
I used to work at FB and submitted this to their browser engineers (since the issue is more common on FB than IG it seems), but they basically said Bubble should be able to fix this and closed the thread
The problem started in iOS 14.8 when that came out this week. I can confirm that dynamic URLs don’t fix anything. No output of the “Insert Dynamic Data” tool will show. Nothing from the database, no option sets. And styles are not loaded. I have submitted a bug report as well.
I have ads running on FB I have had to turn off since iOS users are a significant part of my audience. I REALLY hope this can get fixed.
@jaredg it looks like fonts still aren’t loading correctly? Do you have a contact from Bubble who we can notify about this? Most functionality is better, but everything renders in what looks like Times font.
