Beta App test issue.

[WatcherOfTheNight]

This is a new one,I'm used to losing bookmark but today they all come at once

@TimMumsnet I've had a lot of double posts since the new app test,I'm now getting double bookmarks.
I'm using iPhone 6+ App.

I've had that a bit. They don't seem to last, do they? Disappear with - the next post is it?

[WatcherOfTheNight]

Not just me then Cozie!
Mine stayed though.

I've also just had a sort of strobe like effect on a thread,3 "MNHQ have deleted this thread" messages one after another
I had to delete each deletion message.
Most bizarre & I've never had that on any formats on MN!

I haven't had that latter.

I do think that there are some genuine 'doubled posts' though. That fault appears to have crept back into the new beta - the one where a 'cancel/retry' would appear on the screen if the post was apparently timed out (but had still registered and actually posted.) I've had to check on the main site on several occasions in the last few days, only to discover that a post had actually been registered even though I seemed to have a 'Retry' option.

@WatcherOfTheNight that is a bit strange, I've not seen duplicate bookmarks before.

How often do you see the double posts? Do they clear when you leave the thread and reopen it again?

We added a fix so that it's very difficult to post twice (when you get the 'post failed' alert), but it could be that a single post is being shown multiple times by the app.

I've had duplicate bookmarks, Tim. (No screenshots, I fear.)

I've had most of the duplicate posts resolve themselves after leaving the thread - if I re-enter it they've gone - but some of them may be 'Retry' posts and those stick around.

[cozietoesie]

PS - sorry. Those would be duplicates from other people. (I always check on the main site these days. Every time - so far - the post has actually gone in so I just cancel it away.)

[TimMumsnet]

Ah ok, thanks for the detail - I'll look into it.

[WatcherOfTheNight]

Hi TimMumsnet,I've never had it before & as Cozie says it's other people's posts.
I came off the App briefly but the doubles were still there for a while when I came back.

I haven't had it this morning but will update if it happens again.

[cozietoesie]

Just had a completely replicated post - bookmark and all. It resolved when I left the thread.
