Prevent iOS 11.3 overflow bouncing


I've been making use of the preventDefault technique on the touchmove event since now, when I noticed it doesn't seem to work anymore on iOS 11.3, for neither Safari, nor Chrome or Firefox:

document.ontouchmove = function(event){
    event.preventDefault();
} 

Has anything changed now in iOS? What's the way of preventing the bouncing at the top or end of the page?

Solution

  • It was caused by a bug of WebKit. Bug 182521

    Try

    window.addEventListener("touchstart", function(event) {
      event.preventDefault();
    }, {passive: false});
    

    as a workaround.
