OpenGL, not web based, but yes cross-platform and seems to have a problem with 120Hz phones.

Jerky scrolling in Roon Remote on iPhone 17 with iOS 26.0 [Ticket In]

You’ll likely notice that if you take a screen recording and then scroll within Roon, it’s much smoother. The phone is locking to 120FPS as expected while recording. The goal is, of course, for Roon to do this automatically when the higher frame rate is available from the OS. There’s a ticket in the pipeline to …
