Rails session expires when app is closed in iOS Chrome and Safari

Session doesn't get saved and expires when app or tab is closed using mobile Safari or Chrome. On the other hand, It works just fine on desktop browsers.

Below is the only session configuration.

config/initializers/session_store.rb

# Be sure to restart your server when you modify this file.

Rails.application.config.session_store :cookie_store, {
  key: '_myapp_session',
  domain: :all
}

Ruby: v2.3.0
Rails v4.2.8

Thank you for all your help.
