iPadOS 17 - beware!
Posted: Thu Sep 21, 2023 1:22 pm
I don’t know what apps various muggles use to solve on the iPad… I always solve within the Files app with the PDF, doing the grid fill with the Apple Pencil so that I can highlight and annotate.
If you’re someone who happens to use the iPad in a similar way, you might steer clear of iPadOS 17 for now if you can avoid it.
The Files app is hopelessly broken, crashing often, losing much of the grid fill repeatedly. Further, it doesn’t “remember” that entries are annotations so I can no longer erase things the next time in. (This has made trying to solve Cap’n Rick’s “Painting By Numbers” ridiculously impossible)
It’s a hard thing to search online for, to see if it’s making any noise out there. Search terms like “Files” “PDFs” “iPadOS 17” aren’t effective, but I do hope they are getting the feedback to fix this soon
