Great new UI! Quickly tested on iPhone5 iOS6.0 Safari latest (?) and found a couple of problems: 1) the blue selector shows on the right, opens without any action, icon or link 2) Collapsable menus in pages do not open (no visual clue they would open or bring the user to a new page, anyway. Moreover: when clicking on the search it is somehow nice but also disturbing that the browser top bars appears and then disappears quickly. A blue selector appears on search results when scrolling. I hope that helps. Francesco.


 * We've just removed the blue navigation tab, which was a deprecated experimental feature. I'm not sure why you're having trouble getting the sections to open – does nothing happen when you tap the arrow to the right of the header?
 * That's good feedback about the search bar jump. I agree it's a bit jarring. Thanks for your comments! Maryana (WMF) (talk) 18:42, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

hlist
Does the mobile site load en:MediaWiki:Mobile.css? It doesn't seem so, as navboxes do not apply the hlist class. — Edokter  ( talk ) — 18:59, 24 October 2012 (UTC)


 * It should, yes. We do have some known issues with navbox and table displays, though (working to fix that). Are there any specific problems with navboxes that you're noticing? Maryana (WMF) (talk) 22:33, 26 October 2012 (UTC)


 * I see it does load hlist. But they generally look like a trainwreck with wrapping all messed up (at least on Chrome). Where is the core CSS for mobile?


 * Extension:MobileFrontend has links to the MobileFrontend code repo, and it looks like this issue has been discussed on the talk page but not resolved. Maryana (WMF) (talk) 19:23, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

Firefox
I realise it is not listed as a supported platform, but Firefox on Android has at least one bug for me. The beta opt in landing page the text on the yes/no buttons is not on the buttons and is therefore very hard to see.

on iPhone hard to hide banner
On iPhone (4 iOS 6) the little x top-right to hide the fundraiser banner has a very small click-zone. Several attempts to hide the banner resulted in so many jumps to donation page. One would need to zoom-in to click it (and not everyone would realize that is a workaround).


 * Hmm, you shouldn't be seeing fundraising banners at all on the mobile gateway (en.m.wikipedia.org if you're on English Wikipedia)! Can you let me know which project you were viewing (e.g., English Wikipedia, another language Wikipedia, a sister project like Wiktionary, etc.)?
 * Also, are you sure you're not viewing the regular desktop site (en.wikipedia.org) on your phone instead? If you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the desktop site, you can switch to the mobile view, and it should persist for you next time you visit Wikipedia on your phone. Sometimes there are cookie issues, so please let me know if it's working for you :) Maryana (WMF) (talk) 18:55, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Opera Mobile
I'm using Opera Mobile 7.0.3.40701 on iPod Touch 2nd gen, iOS 4.2.1. I'm seeing three problems with the new mobile interface: AxelBoldt (talk) 17:49, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
 * If you tap in the "Search Wikipedia" field, the text "Search Wikipedia" does not disappear and has to be deleted by the user.
 * The articles don't have any table of contents.
 * The pictures and infoboxes at the beginning of articles are cut off (see e.g. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Lindbergh )
