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

zing has been completely sucking for me for nearly three weeks. maybe 70% of the time threads don't load at all. reinstalling twice has made no difference. i cannot work out what is causing this.

so obviously the problem stopped happening exactly when i posted this

je55e: your thing happens to me occasionally (and only started recently), but flipping the phone sideways and back fixes it

I will try flipping it. I can't remember if I said so already, but refreshing does the trick.

Hi Stet, long time user first time caller etc etc

Any idea what an NSUrlError Domain Error -999 is? I usually get lots of them one after the other when loading a web link in the app. I'm using a lol3GS if that makes a diff..

Yeah, I keep forgetting about that. It's an error thrown by the webview when the page asks for permission to redirect to another domain and I don't tell it whether that's OK. I'll get it fixed.

Brilliant, thanks!

Can you make it so I can see Mordy's star?

"'Zing' would like to use your current location."

new grindr-like functionality

You must have been in a webpage, I'm guessing

it was probably just the latest link posted on the ws of shame thread - i saw the same message.

ah that makes sense.

terrifying imo

tie it into facebook connect

"missing you" autoplays when markers is within restraining order distance

Shit's crashing on iOS 7. I'll try to capture a log.

theres an iOS 7 already????

it's in beta

If we are allowed to request what we'd like to see, I'd like to put in a vote for search capability. And maybe less bold type.

Zing won't open for me, my provisioning profile has expired. :(

N/m, just removed the profile and uninstalled reinstalled.

Yeah the new build on test flight has a new profile. And thread filtering (not yet proper search)

is that the one that broke for me?

No, there's a newer one (I think)

installed now. weird that i didn't get the email

(i just double-checked, there's definitely no email, wtf)

how do i get this beta version? i have testflight already

ah nevermind. might talk my ios dev at work into snagging it for me

i would really appreciate some sort of confirmation message on the trashcan, like, "do you really want to delete the message you just spent 3 minutes trying to type out on a crowded train?" maybe it's just me, but i have accidentally pressed the trash button so so so many times.

What about open sourcing this? Put it on Github!

ZS, I hear you, but you know you can shake it to undo deleting, right? Sorry if that sounds officious or condescending!

no, i didn't know that! *tries*

sigh. ok, well i suck at life as usual. however, i will note that when i entered a test message, shook it, and clicked "undo", it crashed zing a few times in a row.

shake harder and maybe coins will fall out of yr phone or something

*through a series of unplanned but intertwined events ends up shaking his booty*

That's good to know! But it crashed my Zing too. Alas.

You guys are doing the self-destruct shake.

also, lol

wait wait, zing has fucntions that involve shaking the phone? How did I not know this.

...yeah that made my zing crash too.

Actually I've been having major problems posting with Zing -- keep getting an "It is a mystery" box.

You what now

Well I'be damned, shaking to undo deleting a post crashed Zing or me too this time. It used to work!

Trayce, shaking is a common way of undoing things in iOS.

God DAMNIT that's disappointing! That was my fail-safe. :(

crashing here too if that's of any help

Trayce, shaking is a common way of undoing things in iOS.

Oh right. Well, I didnt know that either. These kids and their newfangled teck nollogee, get off my lawn.

it works in the current beta on my iphone 5, but golly does the screen flicker like a mad bastard
