Every now and then I need to make a website. And I noted in my last project that
background-attachment:fixed;
Apple decided fixed background is not the vibe. That's all. Apple is god remember it
Apple is just plain stupid regarding web development, it's a ******* stone in front of the progress lol. I will never buy any of their products again.
Come on Apple! This is so basic... please don't become the new IE.
This absolutely needs to be fixed and it's so ridiculous that Apple still hasn't done it, but I came across a decent workaround if anyone can't wait for Tim Apple to wave a magic pencil:

2022 and this basic property still not supported
As long as the background property fixed value is not supported and might not be supported in the future at all, I have a massive problems to apply the background using CSS background property anyway. I'm building WP custom theme and all images inserted by background property are not visible on iOS devices.
Is this normal? I have opened the thread here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72633738 but no one knows why this is not working.
My background is inserted like this:
`.services {
position: relative;
background-image: url(https://exp-theme.local/wp-content/themes/exp-theme/img/brick-wall-mobile.jpg);
background-position: right;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}`
Exactly the same story is with .svg icons they are not clickable on iOS devices, I must use .png instead otherwise users are not able to click on them.
I hear a lot of people complaining about how this is apples fault but it is not it is disabled for a good reason page speed of websites. When you make a website you want your end users to to see your website as fast as possible but if you use your background-attachment fixed you make that container re-render the image every time you scroll because of this mobile devices deactivate this feature on all devices. think about your end users when making a website.
It's 2023 and iphones are capable of loading insanely heavy page loads with loads of modern animations: but, Apple still cannot load a simple fixed background image properly.
That's really insulting to your customers Apple, especially your developer customers that are capable of understanding how absurd your stated reasoning is.
Apple it's getting pathetic at this point. I'm actually having to add hacky code to my CSS just to avoid this issue. Please fix this for crying out loud!
Lo curioso es que las paginas webs desarrolladas en Wix, si permiten el fondo fijo ¿por qué?
How is this not implemented yet?
Really........?
Don't worry guys, they'll soon implement it by 2060 and of course it will the most revolutionary change in the history of web designing ever spearheaded by Apple itself!
wow... still not working. I think I'll just leave the bad experience for iPad users... when word gets around that sites don't work on iPads, maybe things will change.
I See in 2024 this issue ist still not fixed. I will test it on iOS18 and report it.
