TestFlight Version 1.4.4 (all Builds)

[hape42]

The communication via TestFlight or from each tester to me via email is way too one-sided. It would be better for the project if all testers had the opportunity to see what problems other testers are having. maybe then we can find the causes more quickly together and get to a release for all users more quickly.

When you describe problems, the device and the IOS version should always be mentioned.

Device iPhone XR IOS 16.1.2
Simulator iPhone 12 IOS 15.4

I played matches against different opponents. There were no problems while playing.

With the display zoom turned on, the buttons in the match are now also displayed correctly.

I have some issues with switching color themes. First of all, it is very slow and afterwards some buttons are missing text and other are even missing their background. I can provide screenshots later. Using dark mode on iPad OS 15.

iphone (iPhone 12 pro max running iOS 16.2) (yes my employer forces me to always update ASAP :-) )

• switch to unicorn: crashed aft 7 secs (???)
• app restart, switch to mono: 1 sec
• switch back to unicorn, 1 sec (probably 1.5)
• switch to wood: 1 sec
• switch to classic original: <1 sec
• Further switches: instantaneous

This is a real WTF moment now :-)

[hape42]

very fast after crash / restart? 🤔
that could be a memory leak

[kagsteiner]

might be. Afterwards did a sequence of
top page -> settings -> board scheme -> select different scheme -> back -> back -> select a match to see the board drawn in the new scheme -> back to start

The time to switch to the new scheme increased from 1 to 3 seconds, but then seemed to stay around that time...

[kagsteiner]

Tried the same in the simulator; time also increases. Playing around in the CPU traces without much success. Much time spent in an afterCommitHandler ;-) (now that is certainly helpful)

[kagsteiner]

Seems very much time is spent in

-[BoardSchemeVC tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath:]

[kagsteiner]

Test works fine on my iPhone 12 pro max. Like the new slightly 3dish button design.

[kagsteiner]

Small bug: If I do this:

1. be in top page
2. settings
3. board scheme
4. in board scheme, press okay

Then I'm back in the settings but the buttons for "board scheme" and "DailyGammon preferences" contain no text.

[hape42]

Thanks for the feedback.

I have found the error and fixed it.

A new version should come today via testFlight.

[b-dubbs]

I'd love to help testing -- I have an older iPhone (8) but am using the current iOS (16.2)

[hape42]

Thank you very much. For the invitation to testFlight I need your email address. You can also send it to dg@hape42.de

With builds 318 and 324 I'm getting lots of Ooops Unexpected errors like:

Going to Top Page and trying to advance with those games, same error recurs. At first thought possibly related to particular opponent names but it is not.

Going to DG web, the stuck games all appeared to have a (Predicted Result) showing. Hitting Next from there and returning to DG app, match continues normally for those opponents.

[hape42]

that is a really good hint.
I will try to reproduce this. If I succeed, I have a chance to see in the debugger what happens there

[hape42]

I do not succeed in reproducing that
my preference are:

maybe we have a difference?

[Smiles2go]

Those are my usual settings. Also:

I tried changing some to see if it might help but didn't. Changed back now so I match yours.

No Oooops errors yet today. Next time I get some (probably later today) I will also try with iPad.

[Smiles2go]

Hit several more Ooooops Unexpected today. iPhone 14pro, iOS 16.2, DG build 324.

Looking in DG web, none today show "Predicted". Also, none have shown any problems on iPad DG build 324.

I was able to capture iPhone screen that appears very briefly after hitting Oooops button for Top Page, showing "-1" active matches.

Getting back to Top Page shows correct # Matches where you can move.

Strange crash (sent mail to support) - after finishing my last game, which incidentally was winning a match, he dropped me a message, I also entered a message, then I hit "top page" and the game was still there. If I go back to the game and hit "next game" I get an "oops" crash (see mail).

Also I see a screen that only shows "active matches -1" (can send screenshot if needed)

[hape42]

if this happens again, it would be most helpful if i could see the html code.

So: the error message comes. then leave everything as it is in the app and go to the computer. call up the match there in the browser.
From what appears there then I need the html code.

in safari right click and follow the context menu.
mark the html code, copy it and send it to me by email to dg@hape42.de.

[Smiles2go]

I'm also getting the "Active Matches -1" but it only shows for a second or two before returning to Top Page. Here is screen shot:

[kagsteiner]

Yes this is exactly the faulty "active matches" I'm getting in this situation. Happened both on an iPad and later on an iPhone.

I've hopefully managed to send you the right HTML.

[kagsteiner]

Played games in the simulator today without any issue. Could even continue a game there that was stuck in my phone. Totally stunned:

• finish a game on my phone, get stuck as described above. Restarting the app on my phone, nothing helps, keeps stuck.
• switch to simulator and game continues nicely.???

[hape42]

This is the trigger for the error message "unexpected....".

I have now solved this so that "next" is automatically typed.

I will finish a version today and distribute it via testFlight.

I'll join the testing. I use an iPad Air 3rd Generation running iOS 16 thortont@gmail.com

1. Change in behavior for the Top Page and Refresh buttons (noticably) maybe others. They don't toggle colors as before when pressed.

When I have no matches to move, I would press the refresh (or top page). I would know it was done with the refresh when the button toggled to reverse and then back to normal. Now it doesn't toggle. A refresh can sometimes take a while the first time, so I am not sure now if it has finished processing or not. Even if the performance on the first refresh wasn't so good before, subsequent presses were handled very quickly. Have to wait til I get some matches where I can move queued up to check that vs previous. Would like the color toggle on the buttons to be as they were before.

2. Toggling boards is very slow:when I click one it takes several seconds to move the check mark, and when I wasn't sure my press was registered, I pressed a few more times, and is was like it was frozen. It cannot be scrolled. Selecting an already selected board causes this temporary freeze as well.
