I have a servlet with a valid HTTPS certificate that serves up a PNG datastream. When I add a URL link to it in a Basic Card response, the image is displayed in Google Assistant simulator (in my PC browser), on iPhone and iPad. However, the image is NOT displayed on my OnePlus 6T (with latest updates) or my daughter's Samsung S10. This link opens correctly from Google Chrome on the same devices.
This can be easily reproduced by creating a Basic Card with following URL (public access):
https://wm.mysmarterwindow.com/iswms-client/WMImageServlet?line_id=5676&rand=0.9008262464587079
I am at my wits end here - could it be that Google Assistant works better on an apple device???

Is there any way to simulate the “IOS add to home screen” function in windows with Google Chrome for debugging ?
I want to debug PWAs (progressive web applications) with a browser like Google Chrome.
For example at this link or this link , this two site have a PWA and need to be added to home screen to be shown or debugging.
The only way I can think of so you can do that is if you have a Mac with the XCode iPhone simulator.
Not all PWAs (progressive web applications) are the same, for the second link you can simply use “toggle visibility” option on inspect element sources and use the app, but I doubt you can do that for the first one.
Is there any method to open website (PWA) urls in the installed PWA in iOS- Safari?
Use case: I'm sending email links to login in my PWA, how can I make this url's open directly with the installed PWA instead of the browser?
If you are using Chrome in Android or any of the desktop OS, that would be the default behavior.
Check on "Android intent filter" in this link.
This feature is not supported in iOS yet for PWA apps(created using Safari- the only option for iOS as of June-2018).See "What PWAs can do on Android and not on iOS" section last point.
For iOS, there is actually a very unknown way which you can install a .mobileconfig profile which installs a web clip (or multiple web clips if you like).
This will run your website in fullscreen and is very similar to how iOS PWAs work. You can also link to it online or send it as an Email attachment for your users to install.
Just make sure you add this for the webpage to open fullscreen:
<key>FullScreen</key>
<true/>
You can read more about creating your own from scratch here:

or if you have a Mac you can get the "Apple Configurator 2" App:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/apple-configurator-2/id1037126344
or you can take the easy route and use a generator here if you don't have a Mac:

It is possible to open PWA if already installed in desktop?
I have installed the PWA applicaiton now I want to trigger the open with prompt from chrome engine
I have a share-to-twitter link on a page to share a specific url. Everything works fine by sharing: title, image, description. Everything is shared correctly as I want to.
On Android devices the app starts and the twitter card is also shared.
On IOS (IPad, IPhone 7,8 - latest ios-Version) the app shows nothing to share. It only starts the app as if I only open it by clicking the app-icon on screen.
This is how my link looks like:
<img src="../images/share_twitter.png" class="imgShare"/>
Any hints for me?
thx ©a-x-i

I've setup a Captive Portal with dd-wrt, wifidog, authpuppy and some plugins from authpuppy as well as my own web app.
I've found that video tag from html 5 could not be played on ios popup broswer(I think it's a UIWebView), while android works fine.
Is it possible to make video play-able on this reduced version browser from ios?
It works in ios 7.
It seems that ios 6 (or below) cannot load some resource types (such as mp4 or zip and so on) in the popup web browser.
Here mention a method to how to solve these kind of problems.(it skips the popup browser)
But if you really want to play videos in the popup browser, I'm also researching it...:P
