Description Hampton Catlin 2011-03-24 17:06:42 UTC
The native app crashes if you put in UTF-8 characters. Doh!

I have the same behavious here, which is really annoying for French users as we have a lot of caracter with accents in ours words...
This make the application unusable...

On the page about this app in iTunes ( http://itunes.apple.com/il/app/wikipedia-mobile/id324715238?mt=8 ) i see three customer reviews in Hebrew saying that searching in Hebrew crashes the app. This is probably caused by the same bug.

The app is not so new; is this new behavior? Could it change because of some server-side change?

Too bad there aren't any dates on those reviews...

No dates either, but the french "eval" page on itunes also report lots of bug (without further investigations which from my point of view really seems to be character encoding related)

Hampton, can we get an update on where you are with this? thanks.
Comment 6 Hampton Catlin 2011-05-03 12:08:36 UTC
This is now fixed in the codebase. I'm preparing the release notes.
Comment 8 Amir E. Aharoni 2011-05-18 09:00:43 UTC
Any idea of when is this going to be actually released? My Israeli iPhone-using friends are asking me about this, knowing that i'm "the Wikipedia guy".
Comment 9 Mark A. Hershberger 2011-05-31 22:14:24 UTC
Hampton, has this been fixed?
Comment 10 Hampton Catlin 2011-06-02 11:22:02 UTC
Its fixed in the code... still waiting for Tomasz to deploy.
