Hi Guys, I have just come across a fairly large issue for myself, and probably others. I have just upgraded my ipad air to iOS 11, and now the camera does not work - when launching "a web app" from your home screen, the camera appears but it just shows as a black screen. It works as expected if you access your application via a Safari tab (web broswer), just not when you open it via a bookmarked application added to your home screen. This is a large issue, as customers like and use the application as an app - it opens into its own full screen window. Here is some background reading from stack overflow - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46228218/how-to-access-camera-on-ios11-home-screen-web-app It seems their isn't much anyone can do - so I guess I am asking in vain - Anyone have any ideas? The only thing I can think of is using firemonkey ios application and having a TBrowser to host the web URL, unfortunately I do not have the mobile add on for delphi professional. I would be really thankful if someone could test this for me, I just need to know if the camera is still accessible (eg not just a blank screen) (Then I can consider buying the mobile add-on for delphi) Thanks for any help. *Edit1* - does anyone know if it's possible to manually remove meta tags, one solution to this problem as per stack overflow is removing <meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes"> so your 'app' runs in a normal Safari tab, where getuserMedia is accessible. This is really quite a serious issue for me and my customer base. *Edit 2* I am using FileUpload.Execute; to access the camera I am currently using uni gui version 1.0.0.1420
