Hello everyone. Another (and hopefully final!) RC for the Wikipedia for iOS app. (See previous RC announcement[1])
This should go to the app store and help kill a few (lot?) of the 1 star reviews, so testing would be much appreciated.
http://dumps.wikimedia.org/iOS/Wikipedia-3.1.2-RC2.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)
Specific things to test:
1. Sharing via RIL, Twitter and Facebook. Share to Twitter will now appear only on supported devices (5.x+) 2. Hide the nav bar when showing any overlay (History, Saved Pages, nearby). This fixes issues with the UI being inconsistent with the back button. 3. Fix bugs with URLs in About page 4. 'Open in Safari' feature added. 5. Show feedback (spinning circle) when saving pages, rather than make the app look hung 6. Minor tweaks to the search autocomplete to make it feel more responsive
Please provide us feedback by writing to mobile-feedback-l@lists.wikimedia.org or editing http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Projects/WikipediaMobileiOSFeedback.
Thanks!
