Hi There, I have developed and debug my app mainly through Android OS devices.
Now that it works good on Android, I am exporting the code to iOS.
I am bumping into few issues that I'll look into.
But one keeps me puzzled: images are upside down.
How can it be ?

In fact, realized that it is same when accessing an app exported in HTML, when browsing from an iOS, some of the images appear upside down.

Any advice ?

Hi Eric -

This is definitely a strange behavior, could you please provide a code example that works this way in your app. We will check this.

Also please specify which Libraries version in your App Setting you're using.

Hi Illya, thks for your prompt reply.

Maybe the best is to share my apps w/ your support team.

I'll put details how to access by email.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Best,
Eric

Hi There, I read few posts about this issue. it seems inherent to iOS imgs when coming from a MS environment. I gues it is because those imgs were scanned via Windows and then might have been rotated (upside down). which makes the iOS confused. let me check this point by conducting some tests with my scanner. then, I ll come back to you.

This is an exif issue on the Camera plugin. Newer versions of this plugin resolve this, but Appery's Cordova version is too outdated to support it.

To get around it, you'll need to allow users to rotate their image, or use a plugin that auto-detects exif information for you to be able to rotate it accordingly through a canvas element. I think the latter option is only feasible by manually editing files, which will break the connection to the visual builder, however.
