It’s giving blank output on iOS or is it because the model takes time to load?

Also, is there any chance we can fine tune the model for each user by taking their handwriting in a predetermined template file?

Works for me on iOS. Did you click the “write” button in the bottom right corner? It seems you have to tap it after any change in text or settings for it to update.

Yup, I did use the write button. It works on my laptop though.

I checked the console and it was indeed throwing an error

"Error: Backend name 'webgl' not found in registry"

Were you using actual Safari or an app’s stripped down UIWebView? If Safari, then I’m guessing you have a content blocker that’s stopping access to WebGL.

The actual browser.

I am only running Pi-Hole on my network but then again if that was a problem it would not have worked on my MacBook either
