--- Comment #8 from daginge at confrere.com ---
With the advent of new default browsers in iOS 14, this will become a bigger UX problem for WebRTC services. I have tested iOS 14 Developer Beta 3, and neither Chrome nor Firefox can complete a simple getUserMedia call (fails with TypeError in samples).

Since users now can select these browsers as default, WebRTC services must implement specific UX to teach users how to copy the link, change to Safari, and open it in Safari for WebRTC to work.

Having support for getUserMedia/WebRTC in WKWebView is now critical for WebRTC as a whole on iOS. Users won't be able to understand why their default browser does not support WebRTC.

Are there any details to share on the timeline for support, or are there talks with browser vendors to avoid this problem? What should us application developers do?
