Some issues in browsers & its fixes

Android

  • Icons for manifest.json, doesn't need to have many icons. Adding 192px size icon will scale perfectly for most of the devices.
  • gcm_user_visible_only key removed in Chrome 45 favor of the specified solution: userVisibleOnly.

iOS

  • In safari mobile browser, add to home screen will add black background for icon if its in PNG format. Make it as JPG to work.
  • Safari doesn't support manifest.json for add to home screen yet.

UC Browser

  • Meta tag browsermode is not working.
  • Link tag icon for home screen is not working.
