Yes. I'm also following the advice of my company's Service Desk, who are still saying that they're waiting on BlackBerry engineers for a fix. Maybe it only affects certain devices, users or activities.

That's weird. Maybe it is specific to how your company has it setup or a feature they use. I know for example we can use touch ID with Good, but my buddy with a different firm cannot because his IT dept won't enable it, so he still has to enter his password all the time.

Could well be. Or maybe it's specific to only the iPhone 6. Anyway, hopefully fixed soon and if so I might try the next iOS 10 beta.

For any Good Works users experiencing the inability to type in the message body (only) of a new (only) email, it's been fixed with a GW update pushed on 08/02. Check the App Store for the updates.

Confirmed using PB4 and now PB5 with no return of this issue on a 6 Plus.

Looks like there was a Good Work update for critical bug fixes that was just pushed out today.

My guess is it's going to take an app update from Good to fix the issue.

Sucks as I really like iOS 10, but until this is fixed it is a deal breaker.
Seems like a few Good apps recently got updates that for them working in iOS 10.

I was curious what "Good" was after a few threads here and from what I have read, it's the exact opposite of its name. Why would anyone use it if it's that bad?

It's the only way to access corporate email via mobile at my work. :-/

Most anybody who is using it is not using it by choice. It's a secure Corp email platform for mobile very popular with high security/compliance industries like finance. If you are using it is because your employer bought it and mandates it.

Also came back to say -- we don't use it by choice. My employer uses it and it is our only option for accessing company e-mail other than booting up our work laptops.

Good for Enterprise still hasn't been updated nor does it work
Sounds like Good isn't interested in updating that app (so far), or isn't able to for some reason (at least not so far).

Agreed, it's the only solution that's offered at a number of firms on the street. This broke GfE for me and so back to carrying around my blackberry around with everything else...

How does everyone like Good for Work? Somehow that's still in beta at my office.

What's the difference between GfW and GfE?

GfE is like 100 years old and just let's you do basic email/calendar. GfW allows us to access internal sites / Microsoft lync and annotate documents via shared drive and Apple Pencil

Still broken on Beta8/PB7. Le sigh
Unlikely an iOS update would get it working at this point as it seem to be more on the app developer side of things to create and release an update (like has been done for a some/most Good apps already).
