Phoenix app always renders index page

Any ideas why my phoenix app keeps rendering index page unless i do a hard reload in chrome and firefox (safari works as expected btw)?

  plug Plug.Static,
    at: "/admin", from: {:qsi_search_service, "priv/static"}, gzip: false

  plug Plug.Static.IndexHtml, at: "/docs"
  plug Plug.Static,
    at: "/docs", from: {:qsi_search_service, "priv/static/docs"}, gzip: false

  plug Plug.Static.IndexHtml, at: "/"
  plug Plug.Static,
    at: "/", from: {:qsi_search_service, "priv/qsi_search_service/build/"}

this is endpoints.ex
and these are the routes

  scope "/docs", QsiSearchServiceWeb do
    pipe_through :browser # Use the default browser stack
...
  end

  scope "/admin", QsiSearchServiceWeb do
    pipe_through :browser # Change this to admin stack once coherence is imported

   ...
  end

  # Other scopes may use custom stacks.
  scope "/api", QsiSearchServiceWeb do
    pipe_through :api

   ...
  end

react app is served here: priv/qsi_search_service/build/
docs are some static api docs i generate using bluebird
is it possible that react-router is causing this issue, and if so why is it working in safari?

elixir and phoenix versions:

phoenix, "~> 1.3.0",
elixir: "~> 1.4",

I found what the issue was, its unrelated to Plug, create react app had a service worker that cached pages and it was responsible for this behavior.
