There was an update to Chrome IOS a few days ago, and I've quickly found some small but important issues which, being the only thing that's changed, almost certainly arise from it.

According to the change log, the new version uses WKwebview for rendering, and there's a notable increase in page load speed, but the issues arise if I click on "First Unread" or the small icon that takes you directly to the latest post, I go to the relevant page but not the relevant post eg if my last read post was half way down pg7, clicking First Unread takes me to the top of page 7, I then have to find the latest post for myself.

The second issue is if I click out of a thread or sub forum using the links to Forum Index etc I often get a blank screen, which seems to be at the very base of the page, and have to scroll up to bring the page itself into view.

Dunno if it's a browser issue or a Dakka issue, but figured it was worth mentioning.

It's browser side, I think. I'm having the same issue. Other forums and websites don't go the directed post or point either.

Balls, then it's unlikely to get fixed anywhere near as quick as if Lego had to just kick the hamsters.

Fingers crossed there's a site side workaround!

I've seen the same problems too - bummer as I'd switched to chrome on my iPhone a while back...

I'm glad it's not just me...

Well, not glad, but I guess relieved?

I'm getting some seriously weird errors with it. In some cases, the page refuses to let me scroll down, and just snaps back to 3/4 down. I end up having to wipe the cache.
Add to that seriously compromised selecting of text, and loading the bottom of pages first, I'm getting pretty salty with Chrome.
Gawdsakes, Google.

New update today, seems to have fixed all the issues!
