Characters no longer visible

shaunroe   October 1st, 2014 5:15p.m.

updated to 2.6.0 and phone(iPhone 4s) is running 8.0.2. Characters no longer visible in testing pinyin/ definition screens

*Update* : email from skritter team on Oct 2; they are aware of the problem but don't yet have timescale for its resolution

E Calderon   October 1st, 2014 7:15p.m.

Second that. Any solutions so far?

JFWONG   October 1st, 2014 7:45p.m.

La liste s'allonge,
Pas de caractères non plus pour le pinyin et définition

joshoshannassy   October 1st, 2014 7:46p.m.

Having the same issue!

johngeder   October 1st, 2014 7:59p.m.

Same here! Iphone 4S not upgraded to ios 8

bdfinlayson   October 1st, 2014 8:09p.m.

I'm having the same issue!!! Characters not visible.Must be something with the iOS 8.0.2 upgrade because the app was working fine before.

susannekaiser   October 1st, 2014 8:10p.m.

Same issue here too. In Japanese characters for reading practice are missing. I studied earlier today when still everything was fine.
iPhone 4, no software update done recently.
I did delete local data and Sync (which took an eternity) but didn't fix the issue.
Pleas me assist

SHKT   October 1st, 2014 8:16p.m.

I do have the same problem. First under IOS7 after the update to IOS8 still the same on my IPhone5

Han82   October 1st, 2014 8:28p.m.

Exactly the same problem. Just sat down anticipating a nice hour of studying and guess what... I hope this issue is solved soon!

Han82   October 1st, 2014 8:34p.m.

By the way, the problem is on iPad mini ios 8.02. Very upsetting :(((

lindsey   October 1st, 2014 8:48p.m.

What do I do to fix this? Can I revert back?

salmoxis   October 1st, 2014 10:32p.m.

Me too. Characters not visible. iPhone 5 no recent software upgrade. Help us!

Warren B   October 1st, 2014 11:30p.m.

Same problem on Ipad2

thurzaz   October 2nd, 2014 2:36a.m.

Same here on iPad mini

whiteo   October 2nd, 2014 3:55a.m.

Likewise, on iPhone 4S running iOS7. Of course understand that these kind of bugs happen in an update, but this is the second day in a row I have sat down to study and been unable to...

Fix is awaiting review. Hopefully Apple will be able to expedite the update and get it posted soon. Nick created a forum post with some more details here: http://www.skritter.com/forum/topic?id=2571653696
