Ipad behavior & formatting

Yeah, but it needs more than that; an advanced search option with AND/OR/DateRANGE/AUTHOR/Etc.

agree on all counts.

I have to chime in, because I’ve been meaning to write in about this. The lack of zoom is an issue, but my main problem is the search. The fact that the results is in a drop down rather than a separate page makes no sense. It’s impossible to keep the results around while you investigate each link. Even if you remember to tap and hold the link to open the result in a separate tab, by the time you return to the original tab the iPad has likely flushed it out of memory, causing the page to reload, thus losing the results. Not to mention that you can’t see all the results or scroll the drop down.

More generally, it’s hard to find recent results rather than old ones.

I think I’ve been able to scroll the drop down in Safari on my Mac, but at this point it’s been a while since I’ve tried. I gave up on the search a long time ago and started using a google site search when I want to find anything.

Hey I just saw that, at least for Chrome and IE, they put in a scroll bar for the search function. Still cuts off a few at the bottom for me but proof that the Smartthings gods are listening :smile: Thank You Smartthings Team!!

Yep, see that in Safari on my Mac. Still absolutely horrible on an iPad.

Chrome/Settings/Accessibility/Enable force zoom

I tried that no luck, also tried FireFox for Android with same issue

That’s odd… works here on that same device.

As a 50-something software engineer, I find the locking out of zoom an egregious violation of human interface ethics, the primary one of which is ā€œkeep the user in control.ā€ It’s been two months, man, fix this defect now! The forum is useless to me on the iPad, which means it’s mostly useless, because I’m rarely at a desktop computer.

why hasn’t this zoom bug been fixed? Very anoying. Also the low contrast light gray text. Poor functionality.
