@lantern,

We have checked your website and the Embed works with no issues on IOS Device,

Your issue is coming from your iOS device settings, IOS has a setting that blocks external domains embeds, I'm sorry, but I can't find the setting name.

I guess Apple support knows what's the setting name which blocks external embeds, try contacting them, they should help you find out the setting,

I will also try to find it and let you know if I get any results.

Your issue is coming from your iOS device settings

That's strange because the issue was reported by serveral iOS users from our forum.

The issues are mentioned by iOS 15 users like myself and the latest version iOS for iPhone6 is version 13. So the problem is iOS version related i guess which is important info for the wp Offical AddOns like wpEmbed.

@lantern,

We cannot do anything to make the Embed work with IOS 15, it is related to IOS 15 security, which doesn't let external URL Embeds.
