Why do some of my SVG images with animation and mouse interaction not appear on my Webflow site when viewed on Safari and iOS devices, even though they display fine when directly opened in a browser? Have others experienced this issue? Thank you for your help!

The issue you're experiencing with SVG images not appearing on Safari and iOS devices while they display fine in other browsers is likely due to compatibility issues. Safari and iOS devices have slightly different SVG rendering engines compared to other browsers, which can lead to inconsistencies in how some SVG animations and mouse interactions are displayed.

Here are a few common reasons and solutions for this issue:

1. SVG compatibility: Check if your SVG images use features or attributes that are not fully supported on Safari or iOS. For example, certain JavaScript-based animation libraries or advanced SVG filters may not work as expected. To troubleshoot, simplify your SVG animations and interactions, and test them again to see if they display properly.

2. JavaScript and CSS compatibility: If you're using JavaScript or CSS for SVG animations or interactions, double-check if they are causing the issue. Safari and iOS may have stricter security policies or different interpretations of certain JavaScript or CSS code. Make sure to use standardized, widely-supported techniques and test thoroughly on Safari and iOS devices.

3. Viewport settings: Sometimes, incorrect or missing viewport settings in your SVG file can cause display issues on specific browsers. Ensure that the viewport settings are defined correctly in your SVG file and specify the width and height attributes to prevent inconsistencies.

4. CSS styles and media queries: Safari and iOS devices may have different default CSS styles or quirks that can affect how SVG elements are displayed. Check if any specific CSS styles or media queries are causing the elements to become invisible or hidden on these devices. Consider testing with simplified or default styles to narrow down the issue.

5. Testing and community support: It's important to test your website thoroughly and across multiple devices and browsers. Reach out to the Webflow community or forums to see if others have encountered similar issues and if there are any specific workarounds or solutions available.

Remember to always create a backup or duplicate of your site before implementing changes, and regularly test your site on different devices and browsers to ensure compatibility.
