Issues with the iPad in 501 and 502

OpenEMR Development
#1

Hi everyone. After upgrading from 500 to 501 I am finding tons of issues with how the iPad responds using OpenEMR. Has anyone else run into issues? Some of the issues (but not the only ones) include esign issues, issues scrolling on menus using WMT’s scrolling menu (the scroll bar doesn’t exist), and I’m sure there are others.

Has anyone else run into issues? What have you done to resolve them?

Hi Daniel

I had tested openEMR on what is now version 5.0.2 when I made the changes to the horizontal menu and created the option for a vertical menu for tablets and Smartphones.

Those changes worked well in iOS 10 and above and Android 8.0 and above Fire OS 5.3.6.4. At that time I could not get it to work on iOS 9 and below.

I was not sure how users were using older versions of openEMR in earlier versions of tablets.

May I suggest trying openEMR version 5.0.2 on newer versions of iOS and Android.

It looks like this issue only happens with iOS12.
