Marvin 3.1.2 build 34 and iOS 15.4.1

Shykat · 04-28-2022, 10:23 PM

Hi!

Yes, I'm still using Marvin. I just happen to like the program a lot.

I'm just wondering if it continues to work well under iOS 15.4.1 before I do an update.

Thanks, everyone!

It's been working fine for me!

Working fine for me, too.

Thank you both!

It seems to be mostly OK.
But on my iPad when I switch to another app and then back it loses its position but I don't have the issue on my iPhone both on iOS 15.4.1

I would guess that is the issue about switching between portrait and landscape… it has been reported that can lose your position. I have my position locked to one or the other based on the book contents (lots of tables or something means landscape).
You could also use the technique of bookmarking your position (tap in top right corner) before switching… then it’s really easy to go right to that spot.

I have my iPad in a stand always in landscape mode so it never switches

Interesting. Have you tried the bookmarking technique?

Now, it looks like the newest iOS is 15.5. Same question: Is Marvin 3.1.2 working okay under 15.5??

Thank you!

Works fine for me too.

My guess is that you don't have to ask every time iOS gets updated. If there is something hugely drastic....ie IOS 17 is based on android... then there might be a problem and I guarantee someone will post here that there is actually a problem.

Thank you both. Yes, I probably don't have to ask each time. I'm just a big worrier and like the way Marvin presents my ebooks. I would hate to lose it's functionality.

Thank you, again.

I have ios 15.6 and 15.4.1 and both works fine. There are times that the book will get stuck between pages but closing and re-opening the app will get it back to normal or sometimes going to a different chapter.

I'm also worrying about losing the use of Marvin. Hopefully we will get a few more years of using the app. Just don't delete the app coz u might not be able to reinstall it.
