iOS Bugs
Two problems, the first being extremely frustrating, and the second being mildly annoying
First the frustrating one:
With email accounts that don't have the passwords entered (e.g. those that automatically synced from mac),
It requests your password, regardless of what app you're in,
even if mail isn't open,
it overlays any content open at the time,
when it requests your password it disables the home button from working
and thus stops you from exiting an app,
if you click cancel then it waits a second or two and asks again
this is EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING,
i have 7 or so email addresses, each having different passwords, my iphone was rendered useless by constant pop ups. e.g.
enter password for ...1
cancel
enter password for ...2
cancel
enter password for ...1
cancel
etc.
I couldn't even get to the settings pane to disable the mail accounts (which have to be deleted individually to stop this), and i was unable to stop the popups even when changing mail settings on itunes and syncing across
in the end i had to revert to aeroplane mode, delete all my mail accounts, to even start using this frustrating iphone os
(and just throwing it out there, if you click cancel, then it should cancel...right?)
and the second minor bug is:
When opening passbook the screen flickers and brightness goes to 100%
brightness and screen flicker revert when closed
also a minor gripe about the lack of transparency ruining background photos,
and the use of perspective with background can be sickening (physically nauseating)
also, for the record, this happened on:
iOS7 Beta 1, running on iPhone 5 CDMA variant
