Since updating my iPhone 5s to the iOS 9 beta trial, I have found that the status bar styling meta tag, and the startup images on my standalone web app have stopped working. It was working perfectly fine in iOS8 so I'm a bit confused. I'm hoping this is just a bug that will get fixed with the final release, but I though I would see if anyone has any other suggestions to what might be causing this.
Any ideas people?
