Cordova app unable to click the elements exactly location - ios

I tested my Cordova-based app on the iPhone 11 Pro Max simulator.
everything look good as a design. But I realized that I cannot click on the elements I want to click. I have to click about 20 pixels above what I want to click. This is for every element on page.
For example, I have to click on the yellow circle to open the tab shown with the red circle in the screenshot below.
My index.html
<meta name="viewport" content="user-scalable=no, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, width=device-width">
**If I add viewport-fit=cover, clicks are ok, but this time there is a large (really big) area below tabbar. exactly like this:Problem screen ionic app on iPhone 11 Pro Max

Thanks.

Actually it may be an xCode SDK bug, Can you try with Xcode 9 and see if you can reproduce the problem?
You'll have to export the ipa and install it manually

Finally i solved.
-I updated the cordova-plugin-ionic-webview to version 5.0.0.
-I installed #ionic-native/ionic-webview(versiyon 5.30.0)
Then i added "viewport-fit=cover" to index.html
<meta name="viewport" content="viewport-fit=cover user-scalable=no, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, width=device-width">
finally, i added following css to app.scss
body{
margin: 0;
margin-top: env(safe-area-inset-top);
background: linear-gradient(285deg, #329d65 0%, #019f56 37%, #067247 100%) !important; //without this, status bar background will be white.
}
Now, everything works perfect. i hope it helped someone.

ios ui is different then android and browser ionic

We have built an ionic application for IOS and Android, but their ui is different:
In android and browser design is perfect but in IOS the design changes and it's not good for me.
For example, I have some headers with different colors, few buttons have corner radius, etc... but I'm using simple buttons.
How can I force the style to be the same for every platform?
Here's my config file:

Custom splash images not appearing in LaunchImage.launchimage folder in Ionic 3 project

I have created a new Ionic (v3) project and want to add spash screen to support iPhone XS max and XR. The problem that I am facing inspite of declaring the path and other specs required to get the splash image for a particular device in config.xml is that I could not see the same image in my ios platform's LaunchImage.launchimage folder. This makes problem as Xcode reads from the mentioned folder where it could not find my custom splash image.
My config.xml looks like:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

How to open external link in iOS?

I am using Ionic 3 and I need to load my app from external link.
I did it by adding my external link in <content src="example.com" /> of config.xml file. This is working properly. I need to open links which are in my app screens in browser.
As an example, Imagine there is facebook link in one of my app screen(Like in the image below) and I want to open it in browser(Chrome, Safari..etc) when I click on the facebook link.
When I run my app on Android it is working as expected.
But on iOS it is not working.
Below is my config.xml file
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

I am not using cordova-plugin-inappbrowser plugin and I need to find a solution without doing it using plugin like cordova-plugin-inappbrowser as I load my app inside an iframe from an external link.
It is really appreciated if someone can help me in fixing this issue.
Try this
window.open("https://www.example.com/", '_system');
Call a function like this:
goExternalLink(url) {
window.open(url, '_system', 'location=yes');
return false;
}
Hope this would help you.
You can do this by using a Cordova plugin called InAppBrowser.
Documentation : Cordova InAppBrowser
Add it to your project by,
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-inappbrowser
Now change your anchor tags to this format,
<a id="to-recover" href="#" onclick="cordova.InAppBrowser.open('https://www.google.com', '_system', 'location=yes');" >google</a>
Build for iOS again. Now it'll open in a seperate browser window.
Try this :
1) Install Plugin :
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-inappbrowser
npm install --save #ionic-native/in-app-browser
2) import and use
import { InAppBrowser } from '#ionic-native/in-app-browser';
export class HomePage{
constructor(private iab: InAppBrowser) { }
openUrl(url:string){
const browser = this.iab.create(url);
}
}

The XML you've posted is well-formed once you add an end tag for platform.
We can only guess since you've not included the errant part of your document, but chances are that you've made one of the following mistakes around an attribute value:
Omitted (single or double) quotes.
Used a curly quote “/” rather than straight quote ".
used a curly apostrophe ‘/’ rather than straight apostrophe '.

Is there a way to copy the files by hand or add them in xCode?
(using ionic version 3.19.1)
This is the folder structure for where to manually copy your icons and splash images:
Place all your icons in the AppIcon.appiconset folder:
platforms/ios/YOURAPPNAME/Images.xcassets/AppIcon.appiconset
Place the Default#2x~universal~anyany.png splash in the LaunchStoryboard.imageset folder:
platforms/ios/YOURAPPNAME/Images.xcassets/LaunchStoryboard.imageset
Place the rest of your splash images in the LaunchImage.launchimage folder:
platforms/ios/YOURAPPNAME/Images.xcassets/LaunchImage.launchimage
Xcode should automatically detect the images and will load them into the app.
I hope this helps!
