Coverstar - Positive Social app for iOS: Locking Phone WIth Amazon Cognito Dialog On Screen Turns App Unresponsive

 iOS 17.4.1

Coverstar - Positive Social app for iOS (version 8.0)

Date: 04/24/2024

Description:

Here's an odd bug, the likes of which I can't say I exactly seen before with an iOS app! There's an app called Coverstar - Positive Social. 

The app has an option to use Google credentials to create an account. If the user selects either the "Continue with Apple" or the "Continue with Google" options, a dialog about amazoncognito.com appears on screen. 

That dialog looks like this:

If the user locks the iPhone while this dialog is on screen, the app becomes, seemingly, permanently disabled until the app is reset. 

The user becomes stuck on this screen, with everything completely unresponsive. Exiting and relaunching the app doesn't work either...

Here's a video I captured of what this unresponsiveness looks like:

Here’s one of oddest iOS bugs I have seen in a while: an app called #coverstar has an option to create an account using a Google login - if you lock the phone while the alert is on screen, app becomes completely disabled.

Here’s a video of aftereffect https://t.co/xya6rPGbfa pic.twitter.com/BA5eLcpeX6

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download and launch the Coverstar - Positive Social app for iOS

2. Select the "Profile" icon in the bottom right 

3. Select "Sign Up"

4. From the Sign up for Coverstar pop-up, select either "Continue with Apple" or "Continue with Google"

5. With the ""Coverstar" Wants to Use "amazoncognito.com" to Sign In" message on screen, press the side button on the iPhone 

6. Unlock the phone and return to the app

Result: Locking the phone while the ""Coverstar" Wants to Use "amazoncognito.com" to Sign In" message is displayed inside of the Coverstar app freezes the app - the app is unresponsive until there is a hard restart of the app

Expected: Locking the phone while the ""Coverstar" Wants to Use "amazoncognito.com" to Sign In" message is displayed inside of the Coverstar app should NOT freeze the app 

Gauth: AI Study Companion app for iOS: Easy to Get Stranded on the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service Page

UPDATE: The following reply was received after this problem was documented in a review in the App Store:

 

iOS 17.4.1

Gauth: AI Study Companion app for iOS (version 1.44.1)

Date: 4/23/2024

Description:

There's an easy to reproduce functional bug with the current version (1.44.1) of the Gauth app for iOS. If the user loads the app for the first time they are presented with a "Terms & Privacy" pop-up message at launch. 

If the user takes a moment to read either the "Terms of Service" or "Privacy policy" links on this pop-up message, they basically become stranded. There is no "back" out of either dialog. The user is forced to do a forced re-boot of the app. 

This is really bad end-user experience.

Here's a video of the problem:

2. From the "Terms & Privacy" pop-up select either "Terms of Service" or "Privacy policy"

Result: If the user selects either the "Terms of Service" or "Privacy policy" links from the "Terms & Privacy" pop-up that is displayed at launch the user becomes stranded on these pages - no way to back out and get back into the app.

Expected: User should have a means of backing out from the "Terms of Service" and "Privacy policy" links and re-enter back into the app 

Please take a look at the screenshots below:

Download and launch the Gauth: AI Study Companion app for the first time..

Date: 04/22/2024

There's a problem with the "Terms of Use" and "Privacy Policy" links inside of the iOS app when the user is registering a new account. Neither of these links seem to work.

Download and launch the Chico's - Women's Clothing app for the app store...

Launch the app...

Select the "Register" option...

Select either the "Terms of Use" or "Privacy Policy" links...

Date: 02/27/2024

Description:

There is an unusual problem with the Steller app and the option to create an account using the Twitter authorization login. 

If the user exits out of the Twitter authorization, the Steller app freezes.

.@StellerStories - there’s an unusual bug with your current (11.2.1) version of the iOS app.

Exiting out of the Twitter auth login seems to freeze the app pic.twitter.com/DFjA9jAnUZ

— Robby Delaware (@RobbyDelaware) February 27, 2024

 

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download the Steller: Plan and Book Trips app for iOS (for the first time)

2. Launch the app 

3. Scroll through the 3 splash screens and select "Continue"

4. From the Create your account screen, choose the "X" option

6. Cancel out of the "Authorize Steller App to access your account?" Twitter login 

Result: User is returned to an unresponsive Steller app - app appears (?) to be permanently frozen until the user deletes or manually restarts the app 

Expected: The Steller app should not become unresponsive if the user cancels out of the Twitter authorization login page - I do this exact same thing with every app that I find that has a Twitter/X login for account creation and I have never encountered an app that does this

This is easier to show than to describe, so please see the attached screenshots:

Capsule Clothing Store app for iOS: Disabling Camera Access Results in a Non Responsive Black Screen That Strands the User

 iOS 17.3

Capsule Clothing Store App for iOS (version 1.6)

Date: 02/06/2024

Description:

There is a problem with how the Capsule Clothing Store app responds to having camera access disabled. Like many e-commerce apps, the Capsule Clothing Store app has a feature to use bar code searches. 

If the user selects this bar code option:

They are presented with a confirmation message about enabling camera access. If the user declines camera access, the user will always be presented with a screen that they can't exit out of if camera access is disabled. Nearly every app I have ever used presents a message stating that camera access has been disabled, and provides a link to the Settings app to enable camera access. 

This Capsule Clothing Store app basically strands the user on each subsequent visit into the bar code area. I haven't ever seen this with any other app. 

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download and launch the Capsule Clothing Store app for iOS (version 1.6)

2. Select the bar code symbol next to the search box 

3. Decline camera access 

4. With camera access disabled, re-launch the app 

5. Select the bar code symbol next to the search box 

Result: Selecting the bar code search option with camera access disabled results in the user being stranded on an unresponsive screen - no way to exit out 

Expected: Having camera access disable and then selecting the bar code search option should not result in a completely unresponsive Capsule Clothing Store app 

This is easier to show than to describe, so please take a look at this:

Camera access for the Capsule Clothing Store app is DISABLE. Now launch the app...

With camera access disabled, select the bar code option...

The user becomes stuck on an unresponsive screen.
