Hi I’ve got problem on my iPad. When I’m trying to download video I’ve got this “download error. Host is unavailable” .

But when I’m trying to download the same video from my iPhone it works

Good day,

Most of the sites provide desktop content for iPads, including the way how video is played on the page. Thats why most popular on desktop - blob is used on iPad. You can imitate iPhone for the sites using split view, by switching Aloha to minimum displayed layout.

Hello everyone, I have the same problem with my iPad Pro. Have now also tried with the split screen but there is still the message that the host is not available. With split screen, does it matter whether I have it in portrait or landscape format? I hope you can help me so that I can finally download videos on my IPad.

Hi, blob video downloading on iPads is currently not available, the only workaround at the moment is using it with split view, however this method does not work for everyone.

We are planning to work on improvements, but this task is very complex and requires a significant amount of time, so it has been moved to the future tasks list. At the moment we cannot give an estimate, but we will do it as soon as possible.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Kind regards,
