Testing my webpages with an iPad, I ran into an design error that only occurs on iOS devices. So I tried using the remote debugging feature that is available since iOS6.
- Macbook Pro: early '11, OSX Lion (10.7.5), Safari up-to-date (6.1.3)
- iPad 3: iOS 7.0.4 vanilla
- iPhone 4s: iOS 7.0.4 + jailbreak
- and iOS-Simulator (iOS 6) by Xcode.
It doesnt matter what device I use and what site i try to inspect, the remote webinspector is blank all the time. See the attached screenshot (running OSX in german). I used google as an example in my screenshot.
What am I doing wrong?!
I had exactly the same issue with Safai 8.0 on MacOS 10.10.1 and iOS 8.1.2.
