Captivate and Ipad

Hello Captivaters !...

I have developped many activities with Captivate for the french primary school...

And as the schools are now closed, I have a lot of visitors !...

But some of them are complaining that these activities do not work on Ipad (Drag and drop is mainly concerned - Impossible to drag...)

 

Do you know if there is something special to do on Ipad ?

Thanks !...

    Drag and drop doesn't work on Safari browser on the iPad. It does however work on iPhone with Safari.  But you will find that drag and drop will work on the same iPad if you have Chrome browser.  So the problem is not the iPad itself as much as it is the Apple Safari browser.  Not sure of the reason.

    Bonjour Ludovic. Le problème est récent avec Safari. But I never use it, even on iPad. Always Chrome.
