List issues below


 * Slow near by me when only on WIFI Tfinc 23:45, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
 * This has now been fixed Tfinc 23:35, 4 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Caught in possible refresh loop on near me map screen. On 3G where it kept dropping 1 of the pins. If you tried to zoom or move away it would bounce back to old location and continue to drop that pin over and over. Unable to replicate after closing screen and moving locations.

 * If move locations without closing 'near me' screen (for example press home button to navigate away and then go back to app later) it will find you in your new location (and zoom in on your blue dot) but not find new articles. If you click the on map 'find me' button it zooms in on OLD location and the articles found from that location. Jalexander 22:02, 3 January 2012 (UTC)


 * On some pages both the iOS search bar and the wiki search bar are visible. Only one search bar should be available at any given time. 216.38.130.163 23:07, 6 January 2012 (UTC)


 * if you search for a page nearby, then enter a new search in the search box at the top of the page and navigate to that page, an entry for the searched-for page goes into the history but choosing that page from the history screen takes you to the original 'nearby' page. Example: search nearby and choose the 'wikimedia foundation' page (because I'm testing from the office).  On the WMF page, enter 'Thoreau' in the search box, go to the page, follow a link for 'Civil Disobedience'.  Click the 'nearby' button to go back to the map page, then click the 'done' button to go back to the main screen.  Load the history (by clicking on the clock icon) and tap the entry for 'Thoreau' or 'Civil Disobedience'.  Observe you land on the WMF page, not the intended page. 216.38.130.163 23:07, 6 January 2012 (UTC)


 * on a slow connection, the 'loading' splash screen stays on the page until images are finished loading, even if you the text has fully loaded. When you don't need the images, it's annoying to have to wait for them before looking at any of the content.  The app should allow scrolling even while it is still loading so that the user can read content before all the images have downloaded. 216.38.130.163 23:07, 6 January 2012 (UTC)


 * After looking for pages in the 'nearby' section, if you leave the app then return to the app, you are still buried in the 'nearby' interface and must tap twice back through the map. When re-entering the app for a new browsing session, it doesn't make sense to still be buried in the nearby section.  Exiting the app and re-entering should load up the previously visible article in the main interface, not the nearby interface. 216.38.130.163 23:11, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
