on smaller screen:

ul > li > { display: none } 

i've given transition effect works fine in ios chrome not in ios safari

box-shadow: 0px 0px 10px #777    background: rgba(255,255,255,1) z-index: 5 -webkit-transition: 1s ease 0s transition: 1s ease 0s 

double tap means: on 1st tap on li > select, runs transition on 2nd tap, opens ios native select/option menu. have make open on single tap !

fortunately i've resolved somehow. had :hover enabled in css , guess cause of problem in ios safari.

when commented smaller sized devices using media query, worked me. running perfect on ios safari ios chrome
