Post in progress lost when I flip between tabs! >:-(

This has happened a lot largely and it's really annoying. I'm on an iPad and found when I switch between tabs while writing a post, it's wiped when I return to the MN screen.
Any suggestion?
Thanks

Hi Catkisser,

That does sound odd. It's working for us when we change between tabs. Is anyone else having a similar issue?

Yes, but I think it's the iPad's fault, not Mumsnet. Since upgrading to iOS7, I find it reloads each page quite often when you switch tabs. So if you're halway through something that isn't saved, you lose it - including posts on Mumsnet.

There's lots of whinging about this issue on iPad forums, but no solution as far as I can tell.

I have that issue intermittently. I've learned to copy what I've written before flipping to another tab. Makes writing forecasts quite tricky sometimes.

Me too.

Are you all on iPads?

BestIsWest · 27/08/2014 12:53

I am.

Yep. And all with iOS7 I bet.

BestIsWest · 27/08/2014 13:10

Yes, IOS 7.1.2

OhYouBadBadKrillitane · 27/08/2014 16:52

Yep!

Bleurgh, bloody iPads! Sorry MN Blush

No need to apologise - it's usually something to do with us Blush.

Let's hope Apple get it sorted soon!
