WebGL visualisations not rendering on iOS
See original GitHub issueI’ve tried opening a few WebGL-powered visualisations (e.g. wavenumbers) on iOS devices in Safari but am greeted with “Webgl is not supported by your browser - visit http://get.webgl.org for more info”. However, WebGL is well-supported in Safari and is able to render graphics from other libraries (e.g. three.js).
I’m not terribly familiar with the project, but I’m poking around how GL context is determined and when showNoWebGlMsg() is fired in /src/plots/gl3d/scene.js. Am I barking up the right tree, or totally off-base?

The reason for this bug on iPad is the incomplete iPad detection for mobiles: In “function isMobile (ua)”, the check “ip(hone|od)” must be replaced by "ip(ad|hone|od). Then surface plots will also work on iPads.
The javascript example at “https://plot.ly/javascript/3d-surface-plots/” is working under Windows/Chrome and Android/Chrome (the latter OS without touch operations). Under iOS/Safari however “WebGL is not supported” is displayed.
