Yo!

I've built a super nice game and its on google play already and working great!

However I can't seem to get the localstorage to work on IOS!

I'm using the cocoon option since I am very familiar with it and it has been working great for me. I have to use the webview+ export option since my game uses the firebase server to send data between players and would not work in canvas+ (localstorage works in canvas+). Now for some reason IOS (not android, works great in android) clears the localstorage when you close the app so the data is lost 100%.

Does anyone know an alternative to localstorage we can use?

I now found out this is a MASSIVE problem for people.

Here the discussion about it on cocoon forum:

forums.cocoon.io/t/system-save-load-and-local-storage-do-not-work-after-compile-with-cocoon-io-to-ios-webview-mode/3319/70
Maybe the issue is on cocoons end? Any chance localstorage will work with phonegap or XDK? I guess ill have to try...

This is darn annoying tho

Hello again!

After doing some research I could not find any problems with the Localstorage plugin so I started looking into the iphone and after cleaning the history and data from safari localstorage now works like its supposed to!

I cant understand why tho and I dont know if I can rely on Localstorage to work. Anyone has any further info about this?
