Peach App - Easy way to disable app

Peach App (version 1.0.7) on an iPad Mini 

Description:

I believe that I have found an easy way to disable the app. I do not believe that the average user is likely to this specifically, but it probably indicates something that needs fixing.

After going through the process of creating a new account on Peach, you will eventually find yourself on a page that displays the following text:

“This is your space. Posting to it is a lot like texting. Try saying “Hello!”

On this page there is a settings gear icon in the upper right hand corner of the screen. There is also an arrow in the upper left hand corner of the screen. If you press the settings icon and the back arrow simultaneously, you will be taken to a black screen with a menu option available.

From this menu option if you select “Cancel” the app then appears to become permanently disabled.  The app for me presented nothing but a black screen, no many times I exited out of and re-launched the app.

This is much easier to show than to describe, so please take a look at the attached screenshots.

Steps to reproduce:

1.     Download and launch the Peach App (version 1.0.7) on an iPad Mini
2.     Create an account
3.     From the “This is your space. Posting to it is a lot like texting.” screen, press the settings icon and the back arrow simultaneously
4.     Select “Cancel” from the options pop-up

Result: There is an extremely easy way to permanently disable the Peach App (version 1.0.7) on the initial “This is your space.” screen

Expected: There should not be a way to easily disable the Peach App (version 1.0.7) on the “This is your space.” screen.


I was able to get this to reproduce several times.

Download and launch the Peach App...

Select the gear-shaped settings icon and the back arrow at the same time...

These options are now superimposed over a black screen. Select "Cancel"....

App becomes unresponsive

OpenTable - canceling out of Facebook login strands user on OpenTable logo screen

Date: 01/09/2016

OpenTable iOS app (version 9.2.2) on an iPad Mini

Description:

Found a minor but interesting bug with the current OpenTable app on an iPad Mini.

The account creation process on the OpenTable app allows the user to create an account using Facebook. After selecting this Facebook option from within the app, the user is (if already signed into Facebook on Safari) taken to confirmation page that states that OpenTable will receive access to public profile and email address. The url for this page looks a little bit like: m.facebook.com/v2.0/dialog/oauth?display

If the user selects "Cancel" to exit out of this Facebook page, they're given an option to open page back in the app. They are then given a "Facebook sign in" alert which they can dismiss.

Then, after that, the app just stays on a screen with the OpenTable logo. If you've got location services enabled, it shows location services are on (using battery power) but the app never starts. The only option I ever see is tiny text that recommends that I go back to Safari.

Not an extremely gigantic issue, but something I noticed right away. I can imagine my father patiently waiting an this screen which never loads. I've gotten this to reproduce over and over again.

This is more difficult to describe than it is to show, so please just take a look at the attached screenshots.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download and launch OpenTable (version 9.2.2) on an iPad Mini
2. Select "Profile" in the top right hand portion of the screen
3. Select "Sign in with Facebook"
4. From the "Log in with Facebook" screen on Safari select "Cancel" option
5. From the "Open this page in "OpenTable"?" prompt, select "Open"
6. From the "Facebook sign in" prompt select "OK"
7. Repeatedly tap screen and/or wait for the app to exit out of slumber

Result: Canceling out of Facebook login strands me on an unresponsive "OpenTable" screen

Expected: I do not expect to be stranded on an unresponsive "OpenTable" screen after canceling out of a Facebook login

Download and launch the OpenTable app from the App Store...

Select the "Sign in with Facebook" option...

Select the "Cancel" option at the bottom of the screen...

Select the "Open" option...
Select "OK"...
I end up stranded on the screen. Screen is unresponsive, and no amount of pressing the screen will do anything. If Location Services are enable, the arrow will be present on screen, indicating the battery is being drained....

Instacart account creation on iPad - backing out from Google login in misplaces login options

Date: 01/08/2016

Instacart (version 4.11) on an iPad Mini

Description:

Fired up a pretzel Instacart's app for the iPad today. Went through the account creation process. Found an minor, but noticeable bug with the account creation process.

The account creation process for the Instacart app on iPad has a "Let's get started..." screen. This screen has three options for account creation, Connect with Facebook/Connect with Google/Connect with Email".

If the user simply selects "Connect with Google" then backs out of the Google login, the user will be returned to the Instacart account creation area with the above mentioned options helter-skelter on screen.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. On an iPad Mini, download the Instacart app (version 4.11)
2. Select "Start shopping"
3. Select "Connect with Google"
4. Select "Done" to back out of the Google login

Result: Menu options become displaced on screen if the user backs out of the "Connect with Google" account login screen and returns to Instacart's account creation area

Expected: Menu options should not be displaced if the user backs out of the "Connect with Google" option on the account creation area of the Instacart iPad app

Note: Easier to show than it is to describe, so please see the attached screenshots.

Download the Instacart app on an iPad...

Select the "Start Shopping" option
Select the "Connect with Google" option
Back out of the Google login
Login options are off center.
