Zooms fine for me on my iPhone 7. Reader mode also works, which is like a magic fix crappy website button nowadays.

Tangentially, had anyone noticed a weird zooming bug on mobile safari that appears to cancel a zoom gesture and jump back to the unzoomed view? Quitting the app from the app switcher appears to fix it.

Safari on iOS has been ignoring the user-scalable=no viewport setting since iOS 10. This was done to improve accessibility for the users.

yes, it happens on my ipad pro running ios 12.2 (16E227). have been meaning to upgrade thinking that would fix it, but maybe that’s not the case?

Happens on my iPad Pro in the latest 12.4 betas, I can only bypass it by slowing down as I’ve zoomed in, a quick gesture snaps back and is ignored, but a quick gesture followed by waiting a second seems to preserve the zooming in. It happens most often on this site, for me, probably because I’m trying to zoom in to click tiny links, even on an iPad Pro.

I had noticed that it appears to happen a lot here on HN but I didn’t want to say incase of confirmation bias.
