    There is an issue with platform's bookmarks in iOS A user has created two new lists, one to show the user's bookmarks [sys_ui_bookmark] and one to show the resulting record. When a user clicks on a bookmark record, the URL is passed to the second list's data item as a redirection destination field on the navigation function. This functionality works as expected on Android devices, but it's not working on any iOS devices. On iOS, the second list shows all the records for that table.
