           Summary: window.innerWidth and window.innerHeight change when
                    pinch-zooming in
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified

          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

(This issue is filed as a result of the Interop 2022 Viewport Investigation Effort. It was originally discussed at https://github.com/web-platform-tests/interop-2022-viewport/issues/9, with people from Apple/WebKit attending.)

As per spec[^2]:

> The innerWidth attribute must return the viewport width including the size of a rendered scroll bar (if any), or zero if there is no viewport.

The same principle applies to `window.innerHeight`

Through testing[^3], turns out WebKit-based browsers – both on Mobile and Desktop – adjust these values as you pinch-zoom in on the page.

This behavior is not according to spec and not interoperable as other engines do not adjust the value. Should authors want to get the actual visible area in CSS pixels, they can use the Visual Viewport for exactly that.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Visit https://interop-2022-viewport.netlify.app/combined/viewport-units/
2. Note the reported value for `window.innerHeight` in the top green box
3. Pinch-zoom in 
4. Check the reported value for `window.innerHeight` in the top green box again

Expected result:
The value remains the same

Actual result:
The value has changed
