Skritter iOS App Crashes Immediately after launch

Bob   July 6th, 2012 2:23a.m.

Hi guys, I downloaded the Skritter app today wanting to try it out but the app constantly crashes every time I tap log in and/or choose a list to start. I'm running it on a 32Gb iPhone 4S iOS 5.1.1 jailbroken. I heard a lot of good things about this app and really want to try it out. So, does anyone else have the same problem as me ?

It could be the recent trouble with the App store, I would suggest that you uninstall the app from your device, and re-install in from the App store, hopefully then your problem will be fixed ^^.

Its not just a problem with skritter, it is app store wide =).

No problems over here.

Deleted and re installed the app, still have the same problem.

Hi Bob, what's your username? It's probably an issue with your account data. I'll take a look.

Hey guys, I'm getting the same problem. I'm running an iPhone 4 5.1.1 that is jailbroken.

Bob, Vlad, do you have any crash reports generated from this? You can see if there are any crash reports using these instructions: http://www.iphoneappdevelopment.com/?p=38

scott   July 18th, 2012 4:39p.m.

Also, what is your username, Vlad?

Vlad   July 18th, 2012 5:43p.m.

I haven't singed up yet but I definitely will come end of the month. I love Skritter and want the full features.

I'm just afraid that it won't work on my iPhone. I manage to use it the other day, playing with the beginner's section and drawing a couple of characters but now it just crashes....

scott   July 18th, 2012 6:24p.m.

What list are you studying on? If you give us exact instructions we might be able to reproduce the bug and fix it. Have you tried reinstalling the app from the beginning, or using the demo with another list?

Vlad   July 19th, 2012 2:52a.m.

When I tap 'Choose list to start with' the app shuts down and the same happens when I tap 'Have an account? Log in'

nick   July 19th, 2012 1:33p.m.

What version of the app are you using--the 1.0.2 that has been in the App Store since June 19, or the 1.0.1 that was in the store from June 12-19?

It sounds like a problem with the jailbreak to me if it's crashing there.

Vlad   July 20th, 2012 5:44p.m.

It's the most recent version. When is the next one out?

scott   July 20th, 2012 6:45p.m.

Can't say. If you'd like though you could grab the current beta version in our dropbox and you can give it a try. Let me or nick know your username at scott@skritter.com or nick@skritter.com.
