Web Control iPhone/iPad interaction issues
August 31, 2016 04:27PM
I have not successfully connected to my Duet though a mobile device. I have tried both an iPad Pro and iPhone 6S and get the same result. I can load the web interface and get all the icons but it will not connect. Initial, I thought that it was the password that was not resolving properly though the interface so I commented it out. No change, it did not allow connection. So I thought it might be the dark theme so I went to the stock theme without a password. Still no connection and this is with a the knowledge that I just had connection with my computer to the Duet.

So, I researched if there was some switch or command that I was missing to enable the connection. But, to date I have not found anything save a small blearb saying that the code was borrowed/written for mobile devices. But, i can not remember where I found that to bring in as a reference.

Both iPad and iPhone have the 'connect' icons that are interact-able but i do not get any results.

What am i doing wrong? Does anyone do this to confirm that I am doing something wrong.

Please, Help. Note: I have only had my Duet for a month or two at the most.

DWC uses AJAX and there are issues with AJAX not working with Safari on iOS.

I was told in this thread that it does work with Chrome on iOS, but I didn't bother trying.

Well, that is not cool for iOS being stupid and not supporting AJAX

Of course Safari supports AJAX. Otherwise, all kinds of sites would break.

DWC works fine for me on both my iPhone and iPad. Are you using a very old version of iOS?

I used to have issues loading DWC on my Duet 0.8.5. The web server seemingly randomly gave a 404 reply for some (different ones each time) resources. So that's some kind of bug on the server-side.

Not to old maybe one version back. so that leads me to belive that i am doing something wrong I did not think that Java in general worked on iOS. Which i though AJAX was Java will have to look into it now.

The J in Ajax is JavaScript, not Java.

On my iPad the only weird stuff I saw was with editing files. All the other operations work fine.

So for configuration work I fire up and use my laptop but for starting and monitoring prints the iPad works great.

It sounds like you’ve been very thorough in trying to resolve the issue, and it’s frustrating when everything works on a computer but not on your iPad or iPhone. Based on your description, it might be worth checking if the browser or device settings are limiting the connection. Ensure that JavaScript is enabled, and try clearing your cache or using a different browser on your mobile devices. Also, verify if the firmware on your Duet is up to date, as sometimes updates can resolve such compatibility issues.
