iPad Contacts - edit not functioning correctly

[Mark.ipad.air]

Using Public beta ios9. when trying to edit a contact in the stock Contacts app, if you try to add an address, you cannot see the text as you type it in, but when you click "done" the text is shown.

I've inserted screen shots, one shows me in the edit mode, and at that point I had typed "this is an address".

In the second shot, I had clicked the "done" box

aLso, if you try to delete the address, you end up with a hanging field with no data, and if you continue to do this, you end up with loads of empty fields with no way to delete them.

Third shot shows an attempt to delete an address field

Another screen shot shows the result of apparently "removing" the address field.

I have been unable to replicate this on my iPhone 6 and iPad 3... What iPad are you using?

I have the exact same problem on iPhone 6. When you edit an existing contact I can't save the new address it just doesn't type or show. Also, if you find an address in maps and add it to an existing contact, that doesn't work either. Are you having the same problem?

Nope, my contacts app and adding an address from maps app is working fine on iPhone 6 and iPad 3. One question, did you use the same backup on the iPad and iPhone? The only solution I can think of right now is doing a fresh restore of iOS 8.4 and reinstalling the public beta.

You're probably right, I'll wait for the second public beta just to check, wouldn't want to lose my messages and health just to fix contacts. I have the same issue on my iPad 2 with public beta so hoping it's just a software issue.

...Not exactly, but I've noticed that, if I click on the "empty" address field, Maps opens, and then it says "no results found"

Hi - yes, I reported it as soon as I saw it, and now sent in the video as well.

Update - I've just done a fresh install of 8.4 using the ipsw direct from Apple, set up as new ipad, then updated to the public beta, and the problem still persists.

Possible fix / workaround...

I reckon it's a Region or Language problem!!

I've just tried changing my settings to United States, and the problem doesn't occur, so perhaps the problem is unique to the United Kingdom field settings.

This seems to be fixed in iOS 9 PB3
