	Hey, I'm the author of this site! You're on Android I think, based on the other comments here? I only have an iPhone to test, but I can pinch+expand the site on my phone no problem. Was not intentional to have blocked it! Sorry, I'll see if I can work out why.

It's this in the <head>

  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0">

Remove the maximum-scale property.

Thanks! Will try shortly. I guess iOS/Safari just ignores this property then.

Firefox Android, yep.

That makes some sense actually if iOS ignores it. Whenever I come across the behaviour I wonder why, but if it's just a copy/paste magic meta tag which goes unnoticed by most browsers then I can see how that could proliferate.

Ok, this should be fixed now, let me know if you still can't zoom!

Works, thanks

Works for me!
