Apply a highlight to an object. Then join on a mobile device (iOs or android iirc) and it will not appear. This has occurred ever since the introduction of the highlight object.
Expected Behavior
I expect that the highlight outline displays.
Actual Behavior
It does not appear on mobile devices, but appears on PCs.

Here are some developer forums to help you with your problem.
This will be related to what you’re trying to fix I assume.
Hope this helps!

I have played with the new Highlight instance, and although it works in Studio, in Emulator, and in Game on my computer, once publishing and testing with an actual tablet or mobile, it does not show up. Is there something I am unaware of? Has this feature not fully been released officially yet?
Anyone else having this issue? If it does work on mobile and tablet, please also reply so that I know that maybe its my specific application of the highlight.
Well, the title is very self-explanatory, I made some highlight Instances but none of them works on mobile , there’s anyway to fix it?
I tried the workarounds and I am still getting complaints
Thanks for the report! We’ve filed a ticket to our internal database and we’ll follow up when we have an update for you.

“Highlights do not show on mobile devices ”
Yeah, pretty sure it’s a Roblox bug.
Something that only Roblox can fix.

I also experience this issue, it’s very annoying.
In an attempt at verifying if this is a bug or not (performance saver) you can start the mobile emulator in Studio and check if they render. This is not guaranteed, however, as they both run differently.
I think it’s because of graphics quality. Weak devices don’t have much quality to make highlight outlines visible.

The only work around for mobile is to use a transparent version of a fill color. The outline will still be visible on PC and the fill should be visible through the walls for Mobile.
