Can not record audio with iOS 8

Solar2D iOS

When I try to record audio on iOS 8 ( especially iPhone 6 plus ), the microphone doesn’t work.   I can usually record one word, and hear it.  But when I try to record another word, the app seems to hang.  I can not record and hear any other words.   My app requires users to record audio so it is completely useless now.

I only notice the problem when I use the code below on an actual iOS 8 device.

I am able to reproduce this bug with your sample code available at
/applications/CoronaSDK/SampleCode/Media/SimpleAudioRecorder

Hi @dev45,

Can you file a bug report on this please, so we have it logged with other iOS8-related issues?

Thanks,

This is the only thread I’ve seen on this issue.

Does anyone know how to get Corona staff attention on this, just so those that need this can get some status?

Thanks!

Has anybody filed a bug report on this? We need that to properly track issues like this.

I was hoping the original poster might file a bug report.

I am unable to develop on iOS 8 until my latest iOS app gets approved. 

Appreciate the reply though. Any idea when the newest public build is being released?

I believe I posted a bug report on this but never heard back.   I checked my email and this is all I could find.  I assume this is the bug report.

By the way thanks for following up Brent.  You’re the only person I’ve heard from regarding this issue.  I am honestly debating either just scrapping my app completely or rewriting the app natively because my app is completley useless and I’m getting lots of complaints.

I realize audio recording is not critical to most apps so I understand if this is not a priority, but it’s helpful to at least have expectations for whether this will be fixed or not.

Thanks

It’s still being evaluated.

Any word on this?  Luckily I just tested it on an 8.0 device and found this problem.  My latest app requires the mic and recording.
