I have a Github page that I will link to that has all of my code. So basically, I'm using Angular 8 along with NativeScript to build my first app. I've been following a Udemy tutorial and decided to have a series of components. A Menu component which serves as my Home routing path and a series of child routes. The Menu has a TabView which when each tab is clicked, it opens a different component. Right now, I have an About component, a Store component, and a Join component. When each child component route is opened, I wanted to have a BUTTON attach to each child route that routed to another page when clicked. So a button on the About Component that leads to an About Details component that will just have text about the company.
The problem is either with my routing or the page-router-outlet on iOS. I have an iPad and an Android phone I'm using to test things until I get a new Mac to set up the emulators. When I use the page-router-outlet in a certain location on the about-tab.component.html page, it works fine on Android and opens up the About Details component. But on iOS, nothing happens. I click the button...and nothing moves at all.
I've tried moving the page-router-outlet to different locations on the about-tab.component.html file and it either completely breaks the About tab on iOS and the screen is blank (and doesn't show anything, not even the words), or it stays the same. I created a GitHub page...

I've also tried to move around the location of the routes themselves. I tried making the About Details component a child of the About Component, which is a child of the Home component (Main). I also tried putting the component on the same level as the Home (Menu) component.

// Maybe create an ns-path for the BottomTabBar that can be placed on HTML pages.
