iOS 7 GM - App Failure List

iPad 2 with iOS 7 GM:

Civilization Revolution's fonts are all messed up.

My Calculator app, Calculator' by Valeriya Bozhkova, doesn't work. Looks ok at first, but then screen is simply black, and never changes.

Yahoo Sports still can't make it past the main screen.

Mine hung up for about a minute, a box came up asking me to rate the app, I said no thanks, and it's been working fine since then. Might just be lingering effects I had from the betas because I did a restore rather than manually installed everything. But once I did that, it has worked fine, even quitting it and reopening it.

I had various, numerous problems on the betas. It would do the same above where it would hang for a minute, ask me to rate the app, but I couldn't push any of the buttons. I found that uninstalling/reinstalling got around it, but it was very, very sluggish. The good news is I only used the app to check in-progress box scores for my favorite MLB and college football teams, and while it didn't allow me to view the box score, all of the score alerts I had set still functioned with no issues (although I know that didn't help anyway).

Interestingly, it looked like when they migrated from Yahoo Sportacular to Yahoo Sports, they actually flattened everything out to make the app look more native to iOS 7. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but it was interesting that they had that many issues with it despite that.

Jasmine youtube app doesn't work. Crashes on opening. I am running GM on ipad 3. So far I really like ios7 on my ipad3. Only issues is changing wallpaper. Applying wallpaper within photos app doesnt work. Changing wallpaper inside settings takes for ever! Will be fixed with 7.0.1 so not to concerned.

Werent things like that supposed to be fixed by GM as many would always mention? When 7.0.1 comes out and that issue and/or others are still there, are we going to be talking about it being all good since it will all be fixed in 7.1, right?

Cyclemeter can't download iCloud databases.

Other than that it works though.

Thanks a TON for posting this - I am training for a 10k using Runmeter, and didn't want to risk the upgrade until I knew it was working. I will actually put off my 5S purchase until the dev fixes it. Thanks again!

Note that the app itself works perfectly as far as functionality is concerned. The only problem I have seen so far is specifically downloading iCloud databases. So if you sync between an iPhone and iPad you won't be able to do that for now.

I'm assuming you're only referring to the wallpaper issue. I set my wallpaper earlier today using photos from my photo roll and didn't experience the issue described (iPhone 5). I don't have my iPads on iOS 7 yet.

It was more to comment on the "oh, but it will be fixed in 7.0.1" comment/take on things.

Jasmine isn't working on my iPad 3 either, though it was working in beta 6. It does work on my iPhone 5 though.
 
Apps still in my "iOS 7 fail" folder post-GM:

Doom - broken menus, can continue an existing game but can't start new
Encore Play - no video (Starz Play had the same issue and is now updated, so assume it's coming)
Watch Food Network - black screen at startup
Google Translate - crash at startup (apparently when trying to access the microphone)

In Newsstand, NY Post app often does not render text until you exit and reenter the app.

Can also confirm Marvel Unlimited and Weather Channel crashes st startup. Overall, not bad and not inconsistent with app compatibility at release of previous iOS versions.
 
eBay

Can anyone confirm if the eBay app for iPhone is back to normal, or if it is still difficult to view pictures and impossible to see bid price?

Thanks in advance.

What excuse do we use now?

"it's beta" was the classic Macrumors response to every problem, what now?:rolleyes:

Really? You couldn't think of the reason on your own? Although the GM was released, developers are just now starting to update their apps for iOS7 in the App Store. So it will take a few days/weeks for the majority of apps to work well with it.

Have you tried going into settings, privacy, microphone and turning it on in there? Or if already on, off then back on? Instagram had that problem in beta and that fixed it.

Fine here
 
The only Dropbox issue I'm having is visual, not functional. The top bar of the app that lists what folder in my Dropbox is solid, flat blue, and it appears to have what used to be the "default" bar background below the buttons for uploading pictures, creating photos, etc. But as I said, still completely functional on my iPhone 4S.
 
I'm unable to login to my audible.com account on ios 7 GM. did not have audible installed prior to GM as I just registered. Am able to login fine on my iPad running ios6. :(
 
Audible opens, but won't authenticate.

If I restore my old data, so that audible is already authenticated when I launch it, the app works normally. A fresh install of ios7 and audible, without any restore or update, the sign in process fails and leaves the app useless.
 
Apple thinks GM is good for Public use then release the software .. if 3rd party apps are crashing etc on GM build or Public Release then the issue falls on 3rd party app devs to update their act and update the apps not Apple's fault of 3rd party apps failing... Now if apple apps are still crashing etc .. Use the proper channels to report the bug etc



Apple bug report for consumers ... :cool:
