Hello! Getting closer to a less-sucky release on both Android and (especially) iOS! This RC should hopefully have all major issues sorted out, and if nothing blocking is found will be pushed out to the app stores. People doing beta testing finding issues is much more awesome than users finding issues, so please test things out! ## What to test? In addition to what was mentioned in the original beta (http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mobile-l/2012-May/005566.html), 1. Error handling for network issues. Searching or accessing pages with no network should put up an explanatory message. 2. RTL languages should be handled much better. Try mixing a LTR phone language and a RTL content language to see if it is handled properly. 3. Issues with dismissing Reference display have been fixed. Tapping outside of the display should properly hide it. 4. Scrolling issues with iOS 4.x should be 'fixed' - should no longer be super-jittery. Try super-long articles, and expand multiple sections quickly. 5. Content formatting should be in tune with how it is in the Mobile site. This essentially means fixes for how infoboxes were shown. Try out different infoboxes, and compare them with the mobile site. It would also be awesome to get people to test out saved pages across different network conditions. They've traditionally been our most brittle area, so testing on that would be much appreciated ## How to test? For Android: 1. Download http://dumps.wikimedia.org/android/Wikipedia-v1.2-RC1-market.apk into your Android device 2. Open it in your device to install it! Note: This build shall go up on Google Play shortly. For iOS: If you have not already given us your device's UDID, you need to do so. Follow the instructions at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Projects/How_to_start_beta_testing_iO… to get started! If you have already given us your Device's UDID (yay!) it is much simpler: 1. Download http://dumps.wikimedia.org/iOS/Wikipedia-v3.2RC1-iOS.ipa to your computer 2. Connect your iOS device to the computer 3. Open iTunes 4. Drag the IPA to the 'Apps' section of your device 5. Sync ## How to provide feedback? You can provide us feedback in multiple ways: 1. Email us at mobile-feedback-l at lists.wikimedia.org 2.

ant decided that it would be a good time to cache things (or mess up in general). Did a clean and new build, which seems to work without issues. Available at http://dumps.wikimedia.org/android/Wikipedia-v1.2RC1.apk
