Location in mobile Safari

[habi]

On an iPhone 12 mini with iOS 16.1 in mobile Safari I cannot get a location lock. I’m using 1Blocker as an ad blocker, but also cannot get a location lock when reloading the page with 'Turn off content blocker’.

Is there a way I can help to debug this?

Ensure that precise location services are enabled for the browser, I can't remember exactly how to do this but I can check as my girlfriend has an iPhone.

Location access is allowed for all sites.

Do you get a popup saying any of the following when trying to get the location:

• GPS permission denied
• GPS position unavailable
• GPS position timeout

?

Do you get a popup [...]

No, not at all!

Ok, thanks that's helpful :)

Will take a look at this next week when I have some free time

Checked the console on my own phone: looks like it's not considering touchstart to be a user gesture? If the onClick function was just using click events I suspect it might work.

Ah, thanks for doing the investigation @cpmsmith. Sorry for my slowness on this, will fix this later today

[ntzm]

Please check that it works properly now, thanks for reporting @habi and the investigation @cpmsmith

All good now, thanks for fixing!
