Joe,

Not much noise yet so I’m replying-all. 

First, thank you for pursuing this effort.  I lack a “real” machine and so 
welcome alternate J delivery vehicles, particularly when they don’t involve 
paying Google for VM time.

iPad Pro running 15.4.1: On both Chrome and Safari, expressions return no 
results and Labs do not seem to launch, though the examples do load into the 
editor.  

iPhone 11 running 15.3.1: Ditto.

Perhaps I’m doing something wrong.  Happy to take guidance or perform specific 
diagnostics.

Thanks again.

Ed
