Hi Lituslitus,
Read this document to understand why its not running on your mobile phone.
Currently, LabVIEW Web UI Builder applications are not supported on mobile devices like phones or tablets (with the exception of Windows tablets). However, several mobile platforms now support various mobile versions of Microsoft Silverlight (i.e. not the version required by LabVIEW Web UI Builder applications), so mobile support is likely in a future release
Thanks and Regards

Hi Himanshu,
I dont know if we are talking of the same labview feature. The article says that doesn´t work on Android os. and i am able to see the vi.html using a sansung galaxy. Also it said that should work on Mac with safari, and it has the same problem that the iphone had.
Using labview, i go to tools then to web publishing tools and then crete the web service using a VI
i call the html from any pc using http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8000/nameVI.html
as i said before i tried IE, firefox on windows, and android and it worked fine
didn¨t work on mac 10.7 with safari and in Iphone.
Thanks

One unfortunate issue with the iPhone is that it doesn't allow applications that can execute interpreted code such as the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine, so it doesn't look like we can directly run that on the iPhone. However, there are some pretty good links below that walk through how to actually be able to use a web services VI in conjunction with the iPhone.

Thanks Austin S
but i was looking for a simpler solution!! it is just frustrating to see how people with android are able to monitor the VI by just enter the server IP address and name of the HTML with their phones and I can't with my iphone or ipad using safari
thanks

There is also a cross-platform communication toolkit with support for smartphones here:

As mentioned, viewing a VIs front panel is still a challenge, but with tools like the one above you can at least access data published by VIs.
Good luck!

Some people are working to make LabVIEW work with HTML5...
