iOS7 Testing

Maps are not working right in iOS 7

cublah, my maps did not work as well. setCenter/setRegion did not go to the gps coordinates that were supplied. Stuck me in the middle of the ocean. I downloaded the latest Corona daily build, recompiled and maps seem to be working now.

On another note, it appears the Corona daily build did break my native.setActivityIndicator function on Android. Trying to troubleshoot that beast now.

I have installed the latest ios 7 developer build (beta 2) and there seems to be a bug with the status bar. It appears in all of my apps.

Beta 2 seems to be much better than Beta 1

Correction from my previous post…maps are NOT working correctly on IOS7. Both the runtime event listener for location (what I use in my app) and the getUserLocation (used with the sample Corona Mapview program) return the GPS coordinates as 0,0 in IOS7 on an iPhone 4 CDMA.

iOS 7 working fine on my 4S.  I’ve tried quite a few apps and they seem ok except for Plants vs Zombies!  Maps seems ok, (although I generally tend to use other mapping apps).  The phone does crash sometimes when swapping between apps by double-clicking the home button, but it’s not a major issue for a beta that handles multitasking in a different way.

Just to be clear, this topic was supposed to be about your corona compiled apps not about wether iOS7 works and especially with apps that have no relevance. When I said maps don’t work right, I’m talking about the maps in my Corona based app.

Mapping works in iOS 7 beta 3, my maps are showing and centering flawlessly.

One minor issue is that I can not get directions to work at all.

Any help on this?

^^^ this issue still exists on iOS 7 beta 6 as well as some image issues. The application does not have any errors on iOS 6.  is there a new way of calling google maps / apple maps in iOS 7 that has changed since iOS6 ? 

My tableview does look considerably different in iOS7 but I have not tried to track down exactly what is going on.

Also noticed the status bar showing up sometimes (and not leaving again), I think when I open up native album image selecting and camera.

There is also a textfield listener inconsistency in iOS 7 (already reported). If you have fake textfields and the real ones are off screen this will be a problem.

[lua]local function textListener( event )

    

    if event.phase == “editing” then

        print("event.newCharacters ", event.newCharacters, “event.text”, event.text)

    end

    

end

local defaultField = native.newTextField( 10, 30, 180, 30 )

defaultField:addEventListener( “userInput”, textListener )

– Output Simulator + Android + iOS 6 when typing in ‘abc’

– event.newCharacters     a    event.text    a

– event.newCharacters     b    event.text    ab

– event.newCharacters     c    event.text    abc

– Output iOS 7 Beta 3-5 when typing in ‘abc’

– event.newCharacters     a    event.text

– event.newCharacters     b    event.text    a

– event.newCharacters     c    event.text    ab

[/lua] 

Please report the keyboard bug using report a bug above.  We do appreciate it. 

Hi Rob, I did couple of days ago, #25641

Perfect.  I’ll ping the engineers on it.
