iOS 7 Beta 1 - App Failure List
- Thread starter KeanosMagicHat
- Start date
- Sort by reaction score
- Whatsapp: working, but if you switch between conversations in which you are typing, the bar with the text and send button will disappear, so you can't send messages anymore. Click somewhere in chat (but not on a chat bubble) to get it back.
- Fantastical: working, but really slow scrolling and doesn't update if you have your mail and calendar set to manual instead of fetch or push (which seems more like an OS problem, as the default calendar doesn't update either).
It seems that all calendar apps have problems when scrolling an event view, same goes for the stock calendar app when going to the search view.

In addition to those crashing, can we list those working?
For instance on 4S, restored from iOS6 backup:
- Facebook OK
- Tumblr OK
- LinkedIn OK
- Mailbox OK with delete/reinstall
- Good for Enterprise OK with delete/reinstall
- Netflix OK with delete/reinstall
- Tapatalk OK
- Skype seems OK (tested audio not video yet)
To be continued...
Of course many are affected by UI glitches but at this point it would be difficult to say if that's an app problem or a generic one

Not for me.
I've reinstalled many times. I even uninstalled, rebooted the phone and reinstalled it. It is super finicky. My pattern for trying to use it is to open it. Let it crash. Open it and navigate to my podcast, attempt to play it. It will lock up. Close it and reopen it. Let it crash. Open it again and click on "Now Playing". As far as refreshing the app or making any changes including "mark as played" the app just locks up.
I have iPhone 4s, and this is my only real hangup so far with my usual workflow. There are random OS hangs that require me to reboot, but that isn't to bad for a beta 1.
I updated to the newest version of IG(think it came out last night?). I am no longer getting the grey box issue.
If you use the app photo vault, due to the change in the popups you can no longer type in the password for a specific album. To get around this you must edit the album plist with ifunbox so that the password is blank.
Wow, not to hijack my own thread, but that's a quite different issue altogether isn't it?
I can't believe that the app is gone. Hopefully it's only a temporary measure and it will return before iOS 7 is released.
I'm amazed I didn't notice either as it's an app I've used ever since I bought my first iPhone 3G. I'm not at my computer at the moment so can't check whether the historical voice memos are still stored, but hopefully they are!

Back to the subject of app failures.
News Republic, an application I love and use every day, was actually working better than it had been on iOS 6.
That was until today when they introduced update 3.1 and now it crashes reasonably regularly. Not enough to stop me using it, however, as I enjoy my regular custom news fix.
the voice memo app will return. per the beta release notes it was not included in this beta.
That's a relief, I should really get round to reading those
Are you aware of whether the historical memo files are still stored please? I suspect they will be given the situation.
