I don't think they will support .webm until at least one or two generations of iPhone have hardware decoding for AV1 and/or VPx.



Apple has released software decoders before, but you might be right about waiting for hardware decoders first. They released an HEVC software decoder for devices that could get iOS 11, but had a chip older than the A9, (like the iPhone 5S and 6).
