Zing Touch: ILX now ON IPHONE (and ipod tooches too)

Did you type underscore or hyphen? It looks like underscore, which won't work. With hyphens:

• I hope it
• works.

• well
• dammit

i updated to iOS 11 the other day, and unfortunately it created two big problems with Zing. First

First, at the bottom of a thread, part of the final message is now hidden behind the bottom bar. It's possible to view the rest of the final message in a thread, but you have to slide all the messages up, and then it disappears behind the bottom bar again as soon as you let go.

Secondly, and more seriously, whenever I run into the dreaded You = Too Slow cycle, the button to make the notification go away is hidden behind the keyboard:

There's no way to move the keyboard, hit cancel and go back, or dismiss the notification, at least not that I can find, so restarting the app is the only way out of the cycle. This makes posting on heavily trafficked threads pretty much impossible.

i might be the only one with this issue because i'm one of the 34 people on earth who have an iPhone SE.

I see this issue on my iPhone 7 as well.

There’s an update with apple right now which addresses the bottom bounce; don’t know about the other issue.

Yeah, the current fix only sorts two things — the covered-up bottom post and a missing status line. I’ll take a look at the others ASAP

lol just this second ran into the xpost problem.

anyway, when writing a post in portrait mode, the text you're writing continues off the bottom of the screen with no way to see what you're writing. workaround is to switch to landscape mode. this is on an SE with gboard.

ILX Zing: You = too slow
Keyboard: "I... I'm... Yeah"

Oh crap I see that now -- didn't have gboard installed so wouldn't have seen this. Not sure why it's happening though. Will take a look.

F'real, iOS 11 seems super buggy. It has broken things built against the old frameworks even, which is the first I've seen that in a long time.

Ive updated to 11.01 and I'm still seeing the clipped messages and it isnt just the bottom one - the very top one is clipped off too, so if its the "previous messages" bar it is really hard to click on.

Super annoyed that bcs I swapped phones last week, the simple act of backing up and transferring to newer phone put me on OS11 without me asking, grrr.

O wait I see you mean a zing update.

Omg I’ve finally fixed the xpost bug

!!!!!

that's great! :)

Am I the only one for whom zing crashes after viewing a post?

And thanks stet!

I get that crash too ... I can read threads, but if I click on an individual post, then try to go back to the thread, the app quits. This has been going on for a while and still occurs with the latest version of zing. I attributed the problem to the antiquity of my 4s, which can't run any iOS later than 9.3.5, but maybe it's more general?

Also: thanks, stet!

does not happen to me on SE

Hmm, that’s weird. What phone do you have, brimstead? And what OS?

(Thanks everybody!)

That crash happens to me on my iPhone 5 but not on my later phone

Is it on iOS 9 or 10?

My 5 is on the last one it was allowed (10.3.3 iirc)

I had the same bug on my 5 but not on my new SE

Yes I should add I am on an SE right now and no crashing.

Now to try and rustle up a real 5 — you can’t even simulate one in the current Xcode

I might be done with mine now that I have an SE
Unless I decide to turn it into a webcam for my bird or something

i'm on a 5c running OS 10

i should probably just get with the program and buy a fancy new phone. *ugh*

I have no complaints, I've bought Zing twice now, would buy again

the < button seems a little less sensitive in the new version but I blame Apple for that, stet remains supreme

^^co-sign on both

I too have the crash-upon-going-back-after-viewing-post for a while. Reinstalled, did not work. 4th gen. iPad on 10.3.3.
I mostly use Zing on the iPhone (5S, no problems there) but would appreciate a fix if possible.

The back button thing is driving me nuts. The problem, I think, is that I put the full thread title in the titlebar. In iOS 6, the back button kept the "Back" label, so it was plenty big. In iOS7 that changed so that if there wasn't room it would shrink right down to just the "<". I wonder if it's got even smaller in iOS 11. I'll try a version with no title and see if that helps.

ILX masculine dude thread seems to be broken on Zing.

So many woke dudes in one place has broken technology.

got it, ta
