tried it in dark mode and it was the same

I’m guessing that because myself and anon are on such ancient unsupported iphones, that there won’t be anything you can do about this @Spanky? Having to log in on the desktop as the forum is completely unusable on my phone now

*obvs too tight to upgrade phone just to browse the forum

Spanky · December 31, 2021, 8:14am

Still looking into it fellas

Spanky · December 31, 2021, 8:21am

@deegwaad @anonymity does this describe your issue? https://meta.discourse.org/t/ios-12-issue-with-latest-version/212637

Anyone else with iPhones, are there problems browsing forum?

buildafire · December 31, 2021, 8:31am

Yeah if you’re scrolling back a bit in a thread it can suddenly jump back by days.

judithpriest · December 31, 2021, 8:35am

Oh, I thought that was just me.

deegwaad · December 31, 2021, 10:41am

Yes, always 19 posts back when opening a thread, but also continues to scroll back like others above have said.

anonymity · December 31, 2021, 2:39pm

yep, to the letter

Spanky · December 31, 2021, 5:00pm

Ok looking into it more. Sorry it’s taking so long, got quite a lot on my plate ATM

Spanky · December 31, 2021, 6:22pm

@judithpriest @deegwaad @anonymity @buildafire Could you do me a favour? Go to Settings - General - About on your iPhones and tell me the software version of iOS? Mine is 15.2 and I am getting that issue after upgrading from 14.1

buildafire · December 31, 2021, 6:30pm

Oh yeah. About to update to 15.2 now.

Spanky · December 31, 2021, 7:01pm

One way around it (which I haven’t tested yet) is to install Chrome on your phone and try with that? At least until I sort this safari issue out

judithpriest · December 31, 2021, 8:22pm

Mines saying 15.1.1
I’ll get on the chrome.

Spanky · January 1, 2022, 7:02pm

Still happening? I think it’s fixed on my iPhone 5SE (15.2)

deegwaad · January 2, 2022, 11:35am

Yep. iOS 12.5.5 is as high as I can go on my 5S, and can’t even download Chrome.

anonymity · January 2, 2022, 11:40am

same here - not much @Spanky can do about it really - Apple’s in-built obsolescence is a ballache.

hugo · January 2, 2022, 11:50am

Time for an upgrade, not least for your battery life.

anonymity · January 2, 2022, 11:52am

No need to do that though (I mean I get what you’re saying).
I object to being forced to do so.

Spanky · January 2, 2022, 12:17pm

Developers are looking if they can make the code (more) backwards compatible for older Apple devices. However, this is now out of my hands now (and beyond my intellectual capacity to fix on my own).

They hope to try in the next few weeks so I will keep an eye on updates to see if they have managed a fix…
