“On Submit” Workflow runs in editor, not on mobile

I have a straightforward Workflow set up to run On Submit of a form. It triggers an IFTTT applet, navigates back one screen, switches tabs, and shows a notification.

All this works fine in the editor on my Mac, but seemingly fails to run at all on the on iPhone. The actions don’t occur and when I check the Workflow editor, there’s no record of it running at that time.

I experimented with placing the actions in different orders to see if the IFTTT step was tripping it up, but even when placing that last, workflow still shows no log of having bene run after submitting the form on mobile.

In fact, a very weird thing happened when I placed the IFTTT step last: I saw a “Success” notification on my phone after submitting — but that’s not the text of the notification I set up in the workflow. So it really just seems that the “On Submit” trigger is just not working at all in the PWA version of my app.

Do you have manual publishing turned on? Have you shut down and restarted the app on your phone at least a couple of times?

Publishing is set to Automatic and I have deleted and re-installed the PWA once (painfully). I also have a text string in the app I can use to verify it’s the current version.

OK, I figured it out. I have two different paths to what looks like the same form, but they are different, and only one was pointing to the Workflow. Sorry for the PEBKAC!
