Difference between apple-mobile-web-app-capable and apple-touch-fullscreen | iPhone / iOS meta tags

html, ipad, iphone, iphone-standalone-web-app, meta-tags

Solution

They behave the same way, at least for now. `apple-mobile-web-app-capable` is the only version mentioned in Safari documentation, so I would stick with it. It looks to me as if `apple-touch-fullscreen` was used in early demos/previews, so it was left working later when the SDK got actually released, but the preferred version is the one documented.

Problem

I have a question for which I couldn't find answer neither in google or directly at apple developer forum. What is the exact difference between: ``` <meta name="apple-touch-fullscreen" content="yes" /> ``` and ``` <meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes" /> ``` ?
