This isn’t an IF issue as much as a browser issue, but I thought other people must have solved this problem.
I’ve started playing Emily Short’s Bee twice or thrice on my iPhone, using Brave and Safari browsers, but I keep losing my progress in between sessions. I understand that browsers have an autorefresh setting somewhere, but I am not sure whether this is the culprit and how I can fix this problem.
Safari has an odd interaction with itch.io’s frames. It loses the localStorage for the embedded frame as soon as you quit (not after seven days). I noticed this when playing Type Help.
(This may be a consequence of specific Safari privacy settings – I haven’t tried tweaking them.)
You can avoid this particular problem by loading the iframe URL directly.
