Flickity Issue w/ Mobile Safari, iOS 15.0.2

Anyone else experiencing an issue with their product galleries on iOS 15 Safari? Tried a couple devices and the flickity functionlity siezes after a few swipes; leading up to that, the swipe is choppy and tends to bounce back. After a while, it’s no longer possible to swipe at all until refresh. Here’s an example page:

https://pliersandstring.com/products/stix-cuff-bracelet

It may take a number of swipes before problem manifests to its fullest. Also, the image zoom appears to have broken as well (I’ve disabled it for now).

While testing via mobile Safari we are logged out of Shopify admin and have cleared all cache and site data. We tested on the same devices with mobile Firefox, and product gallery swipe works fine.

Best,

Ryan

For those who may be experiencing the same or similar issue:

Discussed this with my theme provider and it turns out Apple borked flickity w/ mobile Safari 15. Good news is there’s a workaround (permafix uncertain). Find more information here:
