Loading Scripts Asynchronously Break Content Rendering within Instagram Browser

  • Hey Albert,

    We have encountered a very strange bug while opening the site within Instagram browser environment on iOS.

    The content does not load when the option Load Scripts Asynchronously is enabled. The issue in its entirety is rather weird.

    It happens only on some specific devices, iOS or Instagram version doesn’t seem to play any role in this. On top of that, for some of the affected devices, the content is render perfectly on the first load and not on the second, while for others vice versa.

    When I say second load, one needs to go to Search again and then onto the Instagram profile, otherwise Instagram seems to cache that particular URL.

    The site that you can test it on: https://lifteatrepeat.net/
    The Instagram profile with the above in bio: https://www.instagram.com/janko_test/
    Video showcasing the issue: https://youtu.be/3g11tyjkTYM

    Please, let me know if there is any way I can help troubleshoot the issue further. ??

    Have a great day Albert!

    Hi @janko11,

    Thank you for your detailed bug report and the video. And sorry for my late reply. I’ve been very busy lately.

    I’ve given it some thought, and I don’t have any immediate ideas about a possible cause. At the moment I don’t have the capacity to test & debug it myself.

    For now, I’d suggest disabling the “Load Scripts Asynchronously” functionality. ?? I’m going to add this issue to my list and hopefully will get around soon-ish to testing with the Instagram browser myself.

    –Albert
