On iOS Safari, media permissions and autoplay rules are stricter than desktop. Keep the tab foregrounded, approve camera/mic prompts, and avoid low-power interruptions during matching.

## Steps

1. Open iOS Settings > Safari > Camera/Microphone and allow site access.
2. Use latest iOS Safari and keep the tab active during match startup.
3. Disable Low Power Mode temporarily if media startup repeatedly fails.
4. If instability continues, close all Safari tabs and retry in a fresh tab.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Why does Safari ask permissions repeatedly?

iOS can reset per-site permissions after data clears or private browsing sessions.

### Is home-screen web app mode different?

Yes, standalone mode can behave differently from normal Safari tab permissions.
