BtGo! Bug List

### EDIT July 29, 2014: Version 1.2.4 in-review in App Store with these big fixes found and fixed. Location maps: Crashed sometimes without out-of-US addresses. Airplane Mode: Custom fonts caused crash during first launch while in airplane mode. Gadget Names: Imposed a 20 character maximum for gadget names. Settings: Moved current location to the top of the list so it's always visibile on iPhone 4 (smaller screen). ### As you have noticed, the BtGo! app is approved and live on the App Store. With anything new, we need to first focus on bugs. There will be a time in the future we can look at your enhancement ideas, but right now the focus is on identifying bugs in the current features. If you find a bug, please do us a huge favor and post it here. This is what we need from you: Device: Eg. iPhone5s iOS Version: E.g. 7.1.2 (this is in Settings->General->Software Update Location: Eg. Liverpool, UK Description: Describe succinctly and detail what happens before and after the crash or problem. Your help to us in this is greatly appreciated!

Share via Email: When sharing a code via email the link URL has a syntax error. It should read: http://www.buzztouch.com/go/?code=123-456-789 It shows: btgo://http://www.buzztouch.com/go/?code=123-456-789 Note the extra "btgo://" at the beginning. Found and fixed, will be included in next update. Note: The URL that leads to buzztouch.com takes the user to a landing page that asks them to get the app if they have not already. If you know a user already has the app, you can use the btgo:// short code like: btgo://123-456-789 That link will launch BtGo! on a users device if they already have the app installed. Imagine sending a link to "your app" - good stuff on the way :-)

@CSSZiegler: Good find. Strange for sure. Maybe log-out then log-in (on the device), see if anything changes? Weird. Haven't seen or heard this one but will surely find it :-)

If the user who makes the gadget delete it wouldn't it delete the "found" - makes sense

@Sheri: Could be but not necessarily. The list of items found in the past, like a little history list is not connected to the person that owns (created the item). It's a simple list really. But, if the item is deleted, it will say so when the person re-visits it. It's logical that they would then remove it from their list. Something funky's going on. First few days of war, lots of smoke! Ha. Just after 2:00 AM in my part of the world (hint)...signing off for some rest.

@David Well just ate my words ( good at that) Had the same scenario just happen to me- now user can't find the voice mail created - so what it looks like is once you use a gadget once it's gone - is that correct? Sweet dreams and celebrations ahead this evening for sure!

@Sheri: User / Owner, can get confusing. Yes, when somebody uses something you create (by entering your code or whatever) they "get" NOTHING. The idea is that they are using something on your request. The idea is NOT to help them save, gather, keep track of images, location reports, time clock records, voice mails, whatever. They "quickly and easily do whatever you've asked them to do" and that's it. The first set of Gadgets are designed to help the OWNER, not the USER. We hope this makes more sense when BtCentral is wired up and you can begin to control more of what happens to all the "stuff" your users send you. Today, you get them in emails. Later, and depending on what the Gadget does, you could set all sorts of options. Overall, the concept is simple but can get confusing. We understand this. It gets even more confusing when you layer it on top of some missconceptions about what we're saying now in BtGo! and what BT did in the past (helping poeple make apps). If you never met us before you'de have a different perception - we think. Because you have a history, and an idea of what we're all about, it gets more confusing for sure. It'll all work out in the coming weeks and BtCentral will be pumping out happy Xcode projects just like we're all used to. Most "app builder pros" will likely NOT USE many of the BtGo! Gadgets as you see now. They may, they may not, it all depends on whether they find them useful or not. Again, totally different perspective if you've never heard of us, never seen our site, and never "made an app." Hope this helps some.... Out. For good now. Really. d.

Just a quick UI point: I would prefer the when having to type in the "secret code", when finding or adding a gadget, that the keyboard should automatically be numeric and there is a "go" key on that keypad that executes the instruction. Call me lazy... Just to make it a little more frictionless...

iOS Version: 7.0.1 iOS Device: iPhone 5 Location: N/A Description: 0. Grouping of gadgets as a collection. Allows me to attach to gadgets with a single collection code. By bundling gadgets into a collection, an Owner can easily deliver a set of capabilities to Users. 1. Changing name of a gadget on one device does not change it's name on another device. 2. Creating name for gadget, need to have first-letter be auto-caps. 3. Sharing a gadget should have a "Copy gadget code" capability 4. Clock image needs start, stop and elapsed times. Also, include as text for easy copying to an excel file. 5. Clock needs an input field for User to specify his name. That should also be in the email as an image and as copyable text. Thanks, -- Niraj

iOS Version 7.0.6 iOS Device iPhone 4s Location: Germany Description: The app crashed when I wanted to take a photo for my newly created Photo gadget. From then on I could not use the app... launching the app showed me the astronaut image, but no UI. The only thing that helped was to delete the app and to re-install it. By doing so I lost the gadgets that I had found before. Thanks Thomas

App store shows iOS 5.0 compatability. However on iPad 1 with 5.5.1 app crashes after initial image rotation to portrait or landscape home page of BTGo Does it really require v7.x?

iOS Version: 8.0.2 iOS Device: iPhone 6 Plus Location: UK Description: The app has never worked on my iPhone 6 Plus, but it does work on my iPhone 6. Weird. On my iPhone 6 Plus it just shows a blank black screen. This is likely an issue with the software, but it may be worth rummaging around in Xcode to try and track down what's going on!
