Full screen on iPhone

I have just created my first stereo panorama using krpano. It seems to work fine, and on my Samsung s6 it plays fullscreen when you click on the Google Cardboard icon - brilliant.

However, on an iPhone 7 plus (not tried other iPhones), we still see the address bar along the top. I have done several searches on this and found several references to it, but haven't found a categorical instruction on how to solve it, assuming there is a way to solve it.

For a non-coder like me, can anyone give me guidance on this?

Hi,

the iPhone doesn't support the HTML5 fullscreen API, so there is no way to switch to fullscreen mode by code!

But non-plus iPhones or the plus-iPhones in 'zoomed-mode' (to act like non-plus iPhones) have the build-in possibility to switch to a kind of fullscreen mode by rotating the device into landscape orientation. That's all that's possible in the default Safari browser on iOS.

Best regards,
Klaus

Hello,

I participate in this post with another question, how is it that in video viewers like youtube the iPhone works full screen? *confused*
