Hate The New Update! Can I Go Backwards If I Reload App?



Recommended Posts

I can't hit send, reply, or edit, etc, any functions if I'm not looking at the ipad in horizon mode. This might not matter to many, but I, like many, use a keypad with my ipad, which requires the ipad to be in landscape mode so I have to take it off the ipad and turn it, hit the button I want, then put it back on the keypad and type then take it back off and hit send.....This is frustrating :(

Oh wait, this is even more fun....I can't hit the subscribed or forums buttons without being in landscape.....

I'm pretty ticked off about this latest bug as well. We're working on getting it fixed.

The only way it works correctly is if the iPad is in portrait mode when the app is first run.

Work around:

1. Press home button

2. Double tap home and press and hold on VST app until it wiggles and then tap X (I.e. kill app)

3. Hold iPad in portrait mode (short end of iPad on top and bottom)

4. Run VST app again.

It's worse...or more bugs. Now it has to be in a specific portrait mode and it crashes every time I turn the ipad. I think I'm signing off for a while...it's really annoying!!!

That's strange, mine works in both portrait and landscape modes just fine, and I have the latest update.

Which iPad are you using ?

We're in midst of redeveloping the entire app from the ground up. We're aiming to release this new app at the end of January, give or take a few weeks.

It's working now...how odd is that? Honestly I'm not a complete dork LOL I have the latest Ipad (is that a 3?) which I purchased in August. I'm on 6.0.1.

I went ahead and removed it again, cleaned out all of my history, rebooted, etc., and reloaded yet again. It appears to be better (I'm in landscape mode and it's allowing me to type). I'll fiddle around a bit and see how it goes.

Alex I am sure this must be a major headache for you every time there's a change. That's the worst experience I've had, which isn't terrible :) Just annoying. But if I was a first time user it would probably have been a bigger deal so I wanted to bring it up.

Believe me, I know how frustrating it can be! At the moment, we outsource most of our app development to 3rd parties. We've brought everything in-house now and we're hoping to greatly improve the site and app experience overall.

You have no idea how valuable your feedback is, we really really appreciate it!!

I've been playing around. All features work just fine even that "send button" thing (where you had to hit enter to get the button to work) seems to be ok. Perhaps there was some interference from previous versions in my cache? (I don't speak computer my dear so that's all I can guess LOL).

If nothing else you got me to clean house :) And I'm happy to report an issue. I love the site so we have to support your efforts!

It's so bad now I have to reload a few times daily Alex. So bad I gave up today :( I finally did reload again, but it's getting a bit ridiculous. I hope you find the fix soon!

Mine is the iPad 3 and I am not having any problems. Are you all running on 6.1?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
