This pretty much sums up my recent experience of trying to make nice websites that work on all devices. When you follow the standards they fail to work properly on iOS. When you look up why, the reason is "Apple haven't implemented this on iOS to save on battery life" - the result is that you end up having to program the same effect with a ton of javascript, which is a lot more expensive on battery life than it would have been if Apple had supported it properly with native code in the first place.

Apologies for the recent lack of updates. As well as being unwell I have also recently moved home. Hopefully once my life settles down updates will return more frequently again.
