[WikimediaMobile] Quick test of app on iOS 8.1 beta 2

2014-10-07 Thread Brion Vibber
Doesn't appear to explode in simulator, looks the same as on iOS 8 -- ToC
animation works and all (except the bottom toolbar is still doing that odd
scaling thing). Yay!

[WikimediaMobile] [Apps] Release candidates!

2014-10-07 Thread Dan Garry
Hi everyone,

As mentioned at the standup yesterday, let's get our next release
candidates for the apps in order!

On iOS, this release candidate should include:

   - UI scaling for larger devices
   - Fix for the web view loading half way down the screen on slow
   connections
   - Page load indicator

On Android, this release candidate should include:

   - Page issues and disambiguation rolled up into a button under the page
   title
   - Onboarding for the table of contents
   - Nearby, a feature that lets you see articles about things you're near

Let's aim to get these release candidates in the appropriate channels
(TestFlight for iOS, Wikipedia Beta for Android) by end of day tomorrow
(Wednesday), so that we can get them submitted for release at the start of
next week.

Thanks!

Dan
