Description

We creating a broadcast with an iOS or Android native device. We have a interesting problem with the delay in the broadcast.

Here is some delay times for different variants.

Android Native -> 1 second latency
iOS Native -> 1 second latency
Web -> 1 second latency

Web on Android device (Chrome) -> 1 second latency
**_Web on iOS device (Chrome) -> 18 seconds latency
Web on iOS device (Safari) -> 18 seconds latency**

We cannot watch streams on ios device on web. We are watcing streams perfectly on Android device (on Android's chrome web browser) but we cannot watch on iOS (on Safari or Chrome) device.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the broadcast on an iOS device in Safari and Chrome, then compare it with Android native, iOS native, web, and Android Chrome using the latency figures in the report. Done means identifying why iOS web playback reaches 18 seconds and either reducing it to the approximately 1-second behavior or documenting the confirmed limitation.
