Safari shows "No Inspectable Applications" while trying to remote debug web app.

Ever since 17.4.1 updates to Safari, we are unable to debug our web applications using Safari. Was working perfectly fine before.

Safari shows "No Inspectable Applications" in the Develop -> iPadName menu. We have 3 target iPads (Mini, Air and gen 10) and one iPhone 13 Pro Max, all on iPadOS and iOS 17.4.1, all of them show "No Inspectable Applications" in the menu. iPad Mini and iPhone were both visible fine before the 17.4.1 update. Other devices were already updated automagically to 17.4.1 so we couldn't check the before - after scenario. Safari running on iPad simulator with XCode 15.2 has same behaviour.

We tried debugging with latest version of following MacOS: MacOS Sonoma (Macbook Pro M2) MacOS Sonoma (Mac Mini M1) MacOS Ventura (Macbook Pro i9) All of those have same behaviour: "No Inspectable Applications".

We tried Safari Tech Preview and iPadOS 17.5 beta 2 and no change.

Are we missing something?

Are you setting the isInspectable property to true when running on ios 16.4/macos 13.3 and later?

@jlilest It's not a web view, our app is a web page.
