Hi Tommy,

I have now been doing some testing of our solution with iOS 14 and it has been 
fairly straightforward in getting it all working at a basic level!

I have a couple of observations/queries:

Just to confirm, are you not yet supporting any of the informational elements 
(venue info URL, seconds remaining etc) since you say the user experience is 
not changing? Despite setting these values I am not seeing any difference.

Secondly I have on a few occasions been directed by probe instead of via the 
API. I am working to replicate this with packet capture etc so that I can 
determine whether it’s variation in my setup or any kind of bug, but it is also 
likely just because I am repeatedly logging in and out and jumping on and off 
the network in question! Do you know what the criteria is (timeout values on 
the API request, any retries on the API request? etc.) for fallback to probe 
method?

Thanks for your efforts in getting this implemented!

Steve
