Button and Text Not Visible But Button Selectable on iOS

(0) ShareShare

Hi,

 

I have a text control and a button control placed at the bottom of a screen with the displaymode property connected to a 5 second timer.

When the timer hits 5 seconds, the displaymode switches from disabled to edit. The text and button work as intended on internet browser and android phones. However, both the text and button are invisible when iOS is used to run the Power Apps app. Despite this, I can interact with the button to trigger it's onselect property (which is a simple navigate to another screen).

The issue isn't replicable on all iPads. I've tested five different iPads of different models, and this "invisible" text and "invisible but interactable" button only appeared on two of the devices.

 

I've tried replacing the text and button controls, but the same issue occurs. I've also tried clearing cache and updating Power Apps on all the iPads, but the same devices still don't show these text and button controls specifically (all other controls, screens, etc. work as intended in the app)

 

Anyone seen this behavior before? More importantly, what's the fix?

    Maybe some responsive stuff. Think of the buttons are here but the X, Y or Container values are off the screen. 

     

    Try to adjust the position of your controls.

    @Atom_Chs It doesn't seem to be a problem of X Y values. In fact, the button is still invisible but is in the new position I set for it. I am able to press it to trigger it's onselect property, but it's just not visible on those two iPads out of 5.
