Latest Talk app update for iOS

110 replies

Morning all,

Early this morning we released an update for our iOS Talk app and thought we'd give you a heads-up about it.

There is now a search function so you can now search every thread on Mumsnet Talk from within the app.

This update also includes bug fixes for a number of issues that were reported by you - thanks for your feedback.

Let us know what you think and thanks for all of you feedback so far.

Whatsupp ah yes, that's been raised already, I'm working on a fix for that. My bad! The previous way it worked was causing a crash, so it needed re-writing.

TimMumsnet · 12/10/2016 07:50

New release
I've just released a new build on the App Store, including some fixes from
google. I'm hoping this solves a whole load of our our crashes...

TimMumsnet · 12/10/2016 11:20

Strange, for some reason the App Store isn't showing the update yet. Sometimes there's a bit of a delay in release...

Hello TechyTim :)

The reply button keeps disappearing; I have to click out and back in to a thread and lo! It is there again.

Also it is still chucking me out (sox).

Appreciate all your valiant efforts though.

cozietoesie · 12/10/2016 12:17

Yes indeed. Your efforts are much appreciated. You must be going near cross-eyed from looking at all of this code! Smile

Glad you said that because I thought it was just me!

Only1scoop · 12/10/2016 12:45

I updated on 10th it shows no search Facility....
Also now threads I'm on do not hi light when new posts are added now VERY annoying?
Any ideas MN tech??

Only1scoop · 12/10/2016 12:46

Also still constantly crashing

HSMMaCM · 12/10/2016 12:55

But apart from all that - fabulous GrinFlowers

cozietoesie · 12/10/2016 13:14

The new update has arrived in the App Store.

poppopp · 12/10/2016 13:29

I've updated, it's still not highlighting watched threads with new posts.

Only1scoop · 12/10/2016 13:36

Same here updated again

No high lighted posts and no much wanted 'search'Sad

Only1scoop · 12/10/2016 13:37

Too early to comment on crashing

HSMMaCM · 12/10/2016 13:41

No, still not showing me which posts have new entries either. Put the kettle on again Brew

cozietoesie · 12/10/2016 13:47

Are you getting the little magnifying glass near the top right, Only? That's the 'Search' function.

cozietoesie · 12/10/2016 13:49

PS - it's not there when you're within a board as far as I recall.

Only1scoop · 12/10/2016 13:55

Cozie thank you very much I've just found that.
MN can you sort out this thread high light issue....
I've spent the last 2 days feeling like the new thread killer on the block Confused

cozietoesie · 12/10/2016 14:21

Well, there are still some issues. I haven't found any filtering mechanism on the Search function yet. (Doesn't mean it's not there somewhere, of course.) By date seems to be the critical one, I reckon.

I have a vague memory that Tech are aware of the highlighting issue and will be addressing it in some future update. (Happy to be corrected on that.) In the interim, I guess we just have to enter threads to see if they've been posted on. (Where recall of post numbers isn't enough.)

cozietoesie · 12/10/2016 16:08

No crashes here so far. Fingers crossed.

poppopp · 12/10/2016 16:13

Just crashed aggh

FleshEmoji · 12/10/2016 16:14

My iPad works upside down! Yay!

Only1scoop · 12/10/2016 16:21

Still cracking here

cozietoesie · 12/10/2016 16:22

As frequently, Only?

Only1scoop · 12/10/2016 16:26

'Crashing' whoops

Only1scoop · 12/10/2016 16:27
