@avelad I'm afraid that I'm not that familiar with Apple devices. As I use Win/Android, it would be really difficult to debug also...

Same issue as #6133

It appears that Chrome on iPadOS does not have access to the fullscreen API.

@avelad It wasn't related, because ads weren't displaying at all (even when video wasn't on fullscreen).

I tested it again with two iPads (iPadAir iPadOS 17.1.1 and iPad mini 2 OS 12.5.7) and now everything works (both fullscreen and not). So maybe it was Chrome bug and fixed in some new version.

I close the issue and re-open it if I am able to reproduce it again.
