Target Gmail iOS Only, But Not Android

Balint Fulop posted 2017-10-16 08:53:16

Hello,

Is there a way to target the iOS version only of Gmail but not Android?
We're trying to display a link to either the App Store or Google Play Store based on the device.

I haven't yet found a @media query combination that is supported by Gmail and would let me target iPhones.

Thanks,
Balint

This solution was posted on Freshinbox a time ago, i've added the Gmail targeting hack:

`
@supports (-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch) and (color:#ffff) {
      /* iOS 10 Only CSS */
  u ~ div    .iOS-hide{
        display: none !important;
        max-height: 0px !important;
      }

I'm using this with no problems so far.

Great, thanks, Liveclicker!

I haven't tested your solution yet, but looks valid to me (I've known of the #ffff trick before)!

I'm looking for this too, it's easy enough to target Android only though.... typical! :)

While there may be some specific feature you could detect with @supports, there are also third-party services. Movable Ink has a component that target devices, and I believe with this level of granularity.
