    Hi

    I purchased Parallax Pro and after viewing on tablet and mobile phone the parallax effect is non existent so wondering, as more and more people are using the above devices as opposed to a computer or laptop, what is the point in having a parallax theme

    Am I missing something?

    Thanks

    This has nothing to do with the theme. It's a limitation of mobile operating systems. The Javascript event required to execute Parallax scrolling doesn't fire at all in IOS. In Androind, it fires, but the effect is choppy.

    All,

    I noticed the same with Parallax Pro and am confused because, it does not work on either of my Android or I-pad devices.
    However, this BBC news story, which has several parallax events, works just fine across all of my devices and is not even in the slightest bit jerky on the Android.

    Is there anyone here who could explain why this is so please?

    Hello All,

    Thanks so much for this thread.

    I'm also hoping there is a way to get the parallax effect in the Parallax Pro theme to work on iOS. Anyone know if this might be in the works for a future release?
    I'm seeing Squarespace sites with parallax effects working on my iphone with no problem. Here is an example. The BBC example from Funky Grafix also works great on iOS. Are they using another method entirely?

    I'm no expert on Javascript, but this article seems to indicate the required events became available in iOS8.

    Thoughts?

    Thanks!
