Here's a brief overview of my hardware setup:
CAPsMAN Controller: RB5009UPr+S+
CAPs (Access Points):
2 x C52iG-5HaxD2HaxD
2 x C53UiG+5HPaxD2HPaxD
All devices are running RouterOS version 7.11rc3.
Configuration on RB5009UPr+S+ (CAPsMAN Controller):

After initial configuration, the network works well, and roaming for various devices, including Android and some iOS devices, functions correctly. However, after a period of time, typically around 1 day, some iOS devices (such as iPhone 13 and iPad mini 5 with the latest updates) experience a roaming issue. These devices fail to switch APs even when they are in close proximity to a new AP. Restarting the WiFi on the affected devices usually restores proper roaming behavior. Android devices do not exhibit this issue.
I'm unsure whether the problem lies in my configuration or if there might be a bug in RouterOS. I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions, solutions, or insights you could provide to help me troubleshoot and resolve this roaming issue.
Thank you in advance for your assistance and support!
Best regards,
