App randomly shutting down.

It's been going on for a few weeks now, at first I thought it was because my phone (iPhone 5s) needed an update but I have since updated and it's still happening. Very annoying when I'm reading a thread and then it literally vanishes into thin air. It doesn't happen all the time, but it happens enough for it to be an annoyance. The app opens up fine afterwards.

Just thought I'd let you guys know just in case there's an issue with the app.

See how it does. The search function seemed not to work right away so maybe it needs some time to 'permeate'. (I have no idea why it should but there you go.)

Hmm, that is weird, ok thanks I'll look for different crashes. It's taking longer than usual because it's been impossible to recreate on our side. Should still be possible to fix though.

Ah - found it. That search function magnifying glass started off by just repeating the three horizontal bars' tab so it seems to need a short while to settle down. Smile

Thanks Tim. Unfortunately, it just crashed again when I opened this thread again to post. (Post update.) Where is the new search function by the way?

Hey guys, we've just released v3.4 of the iOS Talk App, which includes these updates:

  • A new search feature, so you can search the entire Talk forum from the app. This is brand new technology, so we're expecting to need to tweak the way it works to improve the experience. Let us know if there are any issues or general feedback!
  • A load of bug fixes. I've been tracking over a dozen different bugs, and fixed some of the main offenders. Again - let me know if it's still crashing!

Now I'm done with search, my attention is fully focussed on fixing any additional iOS 10 bugs and analysing the battery usage of Mumsnet Talk.

Thanks for your patience! As always, we're so grateful for all the feedback you're giving.

This is fucking infuriating.
It's making me not want to bother coming on here.
I can't ever re-find what I was reading as don't know what topic the thread was in so am just reading half of zillion threads and getting high blood pressure.
It's seriously fucking me off.

Clayhead · 09/10/2016 18:29

It's just all the time!

cozietoesie · 08/10/2016 13:32

Three or four times yesterday.

poppopp · 08/10/2016 09:12

Three times this morning.

cozietoesie · 06/10/2016 20:50

I do hope that the fix is to be issued soon? That's four times today. So far.

Clayhead · 05/10/2016 19:36

Any more news? It's constant.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 05/10/2016 12:37

Started again for me...

Hi folks! So sorry this is till an issue. We know it's really annoying. And sorry to hear iOS10 hasn't changed anything for many of you. We will let you know when the fix is released though and fingers crossed that will make a difference. Thanks again for your patience.

cozietoesie · 02/10/2016 12:45

Yes. I've done both ios10 updates and they appear to have been immaterial to the issue. (If my memory serves.)

Footle · 01/10/2016 20:07

Updated to iOS 10 and it's still doing it.

GlitteryFluff · 01/10/2016 18:38

This is doing my bloody head in. Arghhhhh.

Clayhead · 30/09/2016 23:18

I've updated to 10.02 and there has been no difference from before.

Same here.

Footle · 30/09/2016 09:30

I might as well do the iOS upgrade, it can't make it any worse can it ?

cozietoesie · 30/09/2016 00:11

I've updated to 10.02 and there has been no difference from before.

OneManBucket · 29/09/2016 23:34

I've not updated to IOS 10 and my phone does this a lot. Quite a few times today. I'm glad it's not just my phone!

WetsTheFinger · 29/09/2016 23:28

Yup me too

Footle · 29/09/2016 23:21

Again and again.

cozietoesie · 29/09/2016 23:10

Three crashes today at least.

venusinscorpio · 28/09/2016 23:28

It appears to have got worse for me with iOS 10.

Footle · 28/09/2016 23:11

And again.
