It seems Apple have surprised us (again) with iOS 7 Beta 6. Given the very small size of the update, it appears to be simply a bug fix for iTunes in the Cloud. As such, it should really have been named iOS 7 Beta 5.1
I've decided to keep using this thread until Beta 7 is out - unless we suddenly see a glut of new app failures under "Beta 6".
_______________
Well the Beta 5 release took me a little by surprise, I'll admit. I'm hoping as we approach GM the list of failing apps will get smaller due to OS stability (although some will require compatibility updates and many will have UI updates).
Anyway, following on from the previous threads, I've updated this post having checked all of my installed apps on iOS 7 Beta 5.
I'll also update it as other forum members confirm any changes from issues reported under Beta 4 on apps I don't have.
I'm using an iPhone 4S 64GB and the apps that I have personally noticed with problems so far, in alphabetical order, include:
Startup Crash / Hang
Allrecipes
Athlean-X - bizarrely it works if you turn airplane mode on. Once the app starts you can turn AP mode off again
Google Translate
PC-FAX.com FreeFax International
Lost Game Save Data
Shock-X
Skill Game
Tap Tap 4
Other Issues
Asda - performing erratically, working for me, but reports of crashes from other forum members
BBC GoodFood - sometimes hangs / crashes
BBC iPlayer - Can't get any content to play, "This programme could not be played. Please try again later"
eBay - works on iPhone, but title text in listings is squashed and it's difficult to open multiple photos in listings. You have to double click the '1 of 3' box and it's not very sensitive. iPad version apparently crashing
Find My Friends - not working properly from Beta 6 onward
iCarRadio - won't connect to stations, comes up with Internal Server Error
iTunes Store - app is crashing for me everytime I try to search
Spinner Free - hangs at completion of a level
Tap Tap Tour - crashes regularly
Twitter - works but have to hold down bottom menu buttons to access
Wild West Pinball - works fine until you get a high score and the keyboard doesn't appear to enter name
Zynga Poker - now starts up fine, but it's signed me into some random guy's account called Nate
