I'm experiencing an issue with the display on iOS devices, specifically iPhone 6 and 7. I am creating a news card layout where I set the content height to 100%. However, on these specific iPhone models, the height is being displayed incorrectly (as seen in the browserstack screenshot):
.wrapper__content {
padding: 18px;
flex: 1 1 auto;
height: 100%;
}
Interestingly, when I remove the height property from .wrapper__content, it works as expected:
.wrapper__content {
padding: 18px;
flex: 1 1 auto;
}
This issue seems to only occur on iPhone 6/7 (possibly other smaller models too), as it works fine on newer iPhones like 8 or X with the same iOS version. It functions correctly on all browsers I tested (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer, Edge). So, I'm trying to understand why this discrepancy exists.
In my project, it's necessary for me to use height: 100% on .wrapper__content. The issue is not resolved by simply removing the height property. Does anyone have any insights into why this isn't working and how to fix it while still using height: 100%?
Here is a screenshot from browserstack showing that the height: 100% works on iPhone X with the same iOS and Safari version:
