In Whatsapp, the video controller menu disappears when a video is being played. It will only re-appear once video has finished playing, so I can't scrub, pause whatsoever when it's being played. Anyone else noticing this? I read somewhere online that Whatsapp 3.0 for iOS is coming. Hopefully that'll correct that. Other platforms already got their Whatsapp updates within a few months ago, I think.
 
Still no luck on Instagram on beta 3, crash on uploading photos...
Tried to reinstall or reboot but still...

Any idea on how to fix it?
 
No issues for me since beta 1. Have you updated the app to the latest version?

I did. The problem started since b2. I haven't tried to install it in fresh ROM but I can't just lose all the game saves and documents.
 
Wordament crashes on startup on both iPhone 5 and iPad Mini, this had been working fine in betas 1 & 2.
 
Is it just me or is "Game Center" the main culprit for apps crashing? I have "Guess the Movie" game and it starts to load until Game Center kicks in and crashes the app.

Bizzare

Just realised when I view a photo in full screen in Whatsapp and hide the control menu, I can't get the control menu back. Just like in the case of video. I have to minimize Whatsapp and open again before the control menu reappears.
 
Can you name some apps and games? I'm interested to know if the following work in Beta 3:

badland
duolingo
poker by zynga
soundhound
tiny wings

I've checked those listed above and at a glance, they seem to work.


With Facebook, I've not had notification sounds since Facebook app v5 or 6.0, or is Facebook messenger what's being referred to?

Hopefully someone can answer your question as this was reported by another forum user. Also, if it is Facebook Messenger, I'd like to update the list.


Google hangouts and Instagram have been fine for me since beta 1, same with whatsapp

Thanks for the feedback.

As these are all very popular apps, I'm a little more hesitant to remove them from the list if people are still experiencing problems.

I'll continue to monitor reports on them.

Reports on all of these still seem inconsistent, whereas with the recently updated eBay app, for example, the consensus was that it is working with Beta 2 and now 3.

These all work fine for me:

....
Podcasts (first time it's worked)
Instagram
Sleep Cycle
...

Thank you for your update. I am still seeing conflicting reports on those above though. With the possible exception of Sleep Cycle.

I've removed all of the others that you listed that were on the first page.

Whatsapp has been completely fine for me on both beta 2 and 3 on my iPhone 5.
Infinity Blade II also works on beta 3 for me.
iPhoto is able to access my camera roll fine too.

Good to know.

I don't use Whatsapp (yet) so can't test it myself. Others have complained of UI issues such as the keyboard disappearing.

The only thing I can think of is perhaps it's a formatting issue under the Beta what with the iPhone 5 having a bigger screen?

Perhaps those experiencing the problems are on a 4 / 4S?

Infinity Blade II also works on beta 3 for me.
iPhoto is able to access my camera roll fine too.

I've removed both from the list.

With regard to iPhoto, I had constant crashes on Beta 2 on the 4S with both the stock Camera app and anything that accessed the camera / photo functionality.

Something has definitely been tweaked in Beta 3 as I've not had a single crash for this reason since.


Is it just me or is "Game Center" the main culprit for apps crashing? I have "Guess the Movie" game and it starts to load until Game Center kicks in and crashes the app.

Bizzare

This was a huge issue for many games on my 4S on Beta 2, but strangely has been completely rectified on Beta 3.

Something's changed back end.

Issues with viewing photos and videos on Whatsapp happening also to the iPhone 4 and iPad 3 for me.

okay I downgraded to beta 1, reinstalled Instagram and upgrade to beta 3. It works fine now.:cool:
 
Previously saved foods work, searching doesn't :(

I created a shortcut to the website, so I can add foods there, but it's clunky. I'm contemplating just logging on my Fitbit app until MFP fixes it's issue.
 
Whatsapp sometimes doesn't notify of a new message. Last night, I was in my laptop, and my wife sent me a message. It wasn't until I checked the home screen, that I saw the red circle in whatsapp.
I was not in Do not disturb mode. I have it on automatic from 11PM through 6AM, and it was like 9PM when she sent the message.

----------

Some website shortcut icons disappear from the home screen. I have an internal webapp I developed at work, and I access it through VPN. I created the shortcut yesterday afternoon. Later at night, I wanted to check it again, and the icon was not there. In fact, I saved the icon inside a folder, with the App that I use to connect to the VPN (Edge client), and the folder had only one icon, the VPN app.
 
Don't bother with Google Authenticator. Use superior Duo Mobile instead (free with no ads).

Thanks! Duo Mobile definitely looks and functions better than Google Auth. Here on beta 3 the camera doesn’t work when you should scan a barcode, but I managed to add my accounts manually.
