Description
When I load the website on iOS v16.7.12 with Chrome it does not prompt to access your location. When I manually click the Leaflet location button in the bottom right corner, it just says "Dang, geolocation is disabled." and does not prompt to access location.
This could be a localhost issue; I haven't tested on a real URL. More testing on mobile devices is needed.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue on iOS 16.7.12 with Chrome, testing both localhost and a real URL as suggested. Check whether the Leaflet location button produces a permission prompt; done when the cause is identified and location access works or the required limitation is documented.
