I'm trying to set up a manualy splash-image across devices. I'm doing so by checking for orientation (touch devices) or screen width vs. screen height (none touch) and set a url accordingly.
Then I add this CSS rule via Javascript:
document.styleSheets[3].insertRule('.initHandler:before {
background: url('+x+') no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}', 0)
With x being the image to be loaded depending on orientation and screen size.
My problem is this works fine in landscape mode, but on my iPad in portrait mode, the correct image is loaded (differ depending on portrait/landscape), BUT it is not expanded to fullscreen size.
Question:
Can I not use CSS background-size on iOS in portrait-mode?
Thanks for help!
EDIT:
Just tried on my Android Smartphone. Works fine there. Makes no sense, why it doesn't work on iPad.
While checking orientation please take note of these points from apple document -
Provide Launch Images :
iPhone-only applications may only have one launch image. It should be in PNG format and measure 320 x 480 pixels. Name your launch image file Default.png.
iPad-only applications: Create a launch image for each supported orientation in the PNG format. Each launch image must be 1024 x 748 pixels (for landscape) or 768 x 1004 pixels (for portrait).
Universal applications: Include launch images for both iPhone and iPad.
Update Your Info.plist Settings Specify values for the UISupportedInterfaceOrientations and UIInterfaceOrientation
and
Not all browsers recognize the cover keyword for background-size, and as a result, simply ignore it.
So we can overcome that limitation by setting the background-size to 100% width or height, depending on the orientation. We can target the current orientation (as well as the iOS device, using device-width). With these two points I think you can use CSS background-size:cover on iOS in portrait-mode
Here are some other resources I also came across while looking for a solution: Flexible scalable background images, full scalable background images, perfect scalable background images, and this discussion.
Ok. Here is how it's working (Thanks to @iMeMyself):
body {
background: url(...) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: 100%;
-moz-background-size: 100%;
-o-background-size: 100%;
background-size: 100%;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}
So first set it to 100%, then to cover. This way all browser that cannot cover get the 100% value, while the ones that can get the 100% overwritten by cover.

As far as I'm aware, this method works on all IOS devices. Depending on your other page elements (header etc) you may need to adjust z-index for the &:before psuedo-element.
html {
height:100% !important;
}
body {
height:100%;
min-height:100%;
overflow-x:hidden;
overflow-y:auto;
// use your own class here //
&.body-class {
// @screen-xs-max is a Bootstrap3 variable name //
@media screen and (max-width:@screen-xs-max) {
min-height:100vh;
position:relative;
&:before {
position:fixed;
top:0;
left:0;
right:0;
bottom:0;
display:block;
content:"";
z-index:-1;
background-image:url(background-image.jpg);
background-position:center;
background-size:cover;
// Add this unless you compile your LESS using a preprocessor which adds vendor prefixes //
-webkit-background-size:cover;
}
}
}
}
According to Designing Websites for iPhone X iOS 11 introduces a new extension for the existing viewport meta tag called viewport-fit, which provides control over the insetting behavior. The default setting is auto, which will not cover the entire screen.
In order to disable the default inset behavior and cause the page to lay out to the full size of the screen, you can set viewport-fit to cover as shown here:
<meta name='viewport' content='initial-scale=1, viewport-fit=cover'>
Without this setting existing techniques used for splash screens and full-size hero images may not display as expected on the iPhone X or other conformant iOS devices.
