 Description   

Magnolia authoring "nearly" works on iPhones. The one issue I have identified right now is that the way we size adminCentral and the dialogs doesn't allow to scroll the content on an iPhone. To clarify: if you open up adminCentral on on iPhone, the content area is sized such that it fits within the screen real estate. But no scroll bar will be shown. Thus, if you open a tree, it will not be displayed in its entirety, in other words, you cannot reach some of the branches. (workaround: use search)

The second issue is that if you do open a dialog, it shows exactly the same behavior. If the dialog contains more fields than fit on the screen, you cannot scroll and thus you cannot edit the fields that are not displayed. I have no workaround for that.

Not sure if mobile Chrome/Safari are both built on WebKit as well, but I experience the same exact problems on Android.

yes, they are both built with webkit

Hmm, maybe if I somehow got offered a device to test this I'd be able to fix it?

Given the thousands of other issues we have open that are more highly requested, we won't be able to address this issue in the foreseeable future. Instead we will focus on issues with a higher impact, and more votes.
Thanks for taking the time to raise this issue. As you are no doubt aware this issue has been on our backlog for some time now with very little movement.
I'm going to close this to set expectations so the issue doesn't stay open for years with few updates. If the issue is still relevant please feel free to reopen it or create a new issue.
