If that is true, support for Safari in iOS 10 is going to stop for ABMaterial, and thousands of other frameworks. This must be a bug. Every framework uses window.outerWidth somewhere and I can (will) not make the changes in the dozens of js libraries because of one idiots decision.

I feel your pain.

The iPad2 I spoke about in post #1 is actually running iOS 9.3.5.

I also have an iPhone5 with 10.2.1. But like the iPad it reports window.outerWidth=0.

I found this tool which compares methods for retrieving the client width live.

Here's the output for the iPhone5

Yes, I read this bug is on iOS since iOS 8.0. So much for Apples quick fix reputation...

It does look like Safari is respecting the @media breakpoints. That's a good thing.

So the exposure here may be only for those using ABM.GetBrowserWidthHeight() to make real-time adjustments to layouts.

Click to expand...

I'll use the jQuery version in the fix to this method, as it will probably catch most cases. Fingers crossed other external component libraries do not use the window.outerWidth()
