Chrome for Android doesn't correctly display vw


When I put <\meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width"/> in the code of my site then 1 vw (viewport width) after rotating device from landscape to portrait or vice versa doesn't update. For example if my phone screen is 640x360 and I open my site in portrait mode then 1vw = 1/360px but when I rotate it's still, but should be 1/640px. In Firefox for Android everything seems correctly. Is there any way to make it work without javascript?


Solution

  • That's because it is not properly supported for Android yet.
