BIMMERPOST iOS App (iPhone/iPad) Issues/Bugs/Feature Request Thread

apptest · 09-17-2015, 01:11 AM

To everyone interested, we are currently working with the new iOS9 SDK, so our regular updates will be a little delayed while we get things more compatiblized with ios9

I found some initial issues with the app in iOS 9. Let me know if you want me to post them to make sure they're covered.

Absolutely, any reports of bugs or errors would be much appreciated!

So far the one I found is that the keyboard now covers the input screen when trying to make a post?

Yep, that's the main one I noticed. The second one was that the keyboard was not rendering properly, but I think that should probably be resolved with iOS 9 compatibility. The last issue is when you start a post, swipe right to get to the menu and navigate to News, the keyboard sticks around.

Thanks! THis is helpful, i'm noticing the same things happening on my iOS9 simulator. What a pain

Just a warning, I'm not finding any easy fixes quite yet, so this may be an issue for a few weeks

Hey guys I am a new member and I wanted to make a post introducing myself and post pics of the car but on my iPhone 6 it will not let me click the pic button, it just closes out the site and puts me at my home screen. Really sucks because it deleted my whole intro lol. Any way around this other then trying it on a CPU?

dailowill · 09-19-2015, 09:21 AM

Also noticed that I can highlight over text to copy and paste anywhere

Yea we are still toying with this one. Has pros and cons. I was thinking of allowing a post to be copied into the clipboard, but just one post at a time

MightyMouseTech · 09-20-2015, 10:22 AM

Installed ios9.

Notifications no longer work properly. I can see I have 6 notifications, click on it, nothing comes up in list.

Cool! I was trying to copy one PM to another and had to get on the laptop because it wouldn't allow me to do so.

Thanks man for the help! When you posted what iOS you were running it reminded me to check mine, lo and behold I need to update and it fixed the problem

x.shell · 09-23-2015, 01:27 AM

I get this error when I try to download an image. After the error, I can't exit the full screened image gallery. I have to force quit and restart the app. I am using iOS9.

S4NoMore · 09-23-2015, 01:39 PM

Running well on iOS 9 so far.

One item that I just noticed was that when replying to a PM, the keyboard blocks the "send" button. I had to rotate to landscape, hide the keyboard, then hit the send button.

Another way to get around this is to press on the 'x' button to pop up the 'Cancel post' dialog and pressing 'No'. That will hide the keyboard. That way you don't have to rotate to landscape.

Yup, an unfortunate known issue, Its already fixed for the next version, but there are a few other iOS9 bugs I need to iron out before I can publish the next version, but time frame for now is about 1 week. X your fingers

Hazey82 · 09-27-2015, 10:05 PM

so i had ios8 whatever and the latest bimmerpost app, then upgraded to io9 and i was using the app and it worked fine. im using the ios default keyboard. then all of a sudden when posting, the keyboard covers the posting area and i could not get it to go away to hit the submit button. also, key board renders in a funny shape - upside down pyramid shape, with keys at the bottom missing. want me to try and post some pics? I uninstalled app then reinstalled and had same problems.

Thanks. But no need to post pics. We are working on the bug now actually.

There are a few temporary work arounds which aren't great but will get you by until the next version is released which include rotating the phone 90 degrees and then back or closing the text input area and re opening it. It's flaky when these tricks work but until we can finish cracking the changes that were made to the keyboard for iOS9.

right now m expecting about a 1 week eta for the next version of the app which will support ios 9 keyboard

Sporadically there is no submit button available for posting. Very annoying, seems to happen every couple weeks.
