I used the following code in Properties Calculate to make a date field visible if "yes" is the selected choice from a dropdown list. The code works perfectly until the form is opened in Acrobat from a smart device, in my case an iPhone. The date field then fails to become visible when "yes" is selected in the dropdown list. All help with this appreciated as I have 30 date fields in my form

if (this.getField("approved1").value == "yes"){  

event.target.display = display.visible;

}else

{

event.target.display = display.hidden;

}

Almost no scripts are going to work on mobile devices. You should try PDF Expert by Readdle, though. It currently provides the best scripting support on iOS devices. It just might work...

Would using Adobe Experience Manager Forms make any difference?

Yes, then it won't work at all on a mobile device...
