Hello everyone!
Our iOS app was released last week, and has been found wanting in a lot of areas. We've been working hard at fixing the bugs encountered and have fixed a good number of them. Please help us test it out by testing this Release Candidate.
http://dumps.wikimedia.org/iOS/Wikipedia-3.1.2-RC1.ipa Download the ipa, drag it into iTunes, and sync! NOTE 1: If you haven't given us your UDID then this IPA will NOT work for you. We need to have your IPA before we build a new version in order for it to work. If your try the IPA and find that it wont install then follow these instructions and then send us your UDID (http://www.innerfence.com/howto/find-iphone-unique-device-identifier-udid)
iOS 4.2 and 4.3 were the ones majorly affected, so testing on those would be rewarded with large amounts of developer-smiles.
Things to specifically test for:
1. Scrolling issues. We had major scrolling issues in 4.2 and 4.3 which have now been fixed. 2. Search. Try it out and see if it feels 'natural' and not too 'laggy'. 3. Styling issues with navboxes in articles. They should look the same as on the mobile site on safari. 4. General speed/slowness issues.
Also stress test all the other features present (interwiki language links, change font settings, save pages, look up nearby articles).
You can provide us feedback by either editing this page: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Projects/WikipediaMobileiOSFeedback or by replying on list.
Thanks!
