Apple Devices and Public Forms

asked on April 27, 2023 Show version history

Since this last Sunday 4/23/23 all (newer) Apple devices (Iphone/Ipad) that have had an update since 4.23.23 and later are having issues with forms loading from our Laserfiche environment. They are public forms and anyone on Android, Windows PC's and/or Chromebooks do not have any issues loading these forms.

I will be doing an extensive inventory to see what the forms that consistently will not load have in common, such as version of the designer and rules and lookups and perhaps custom css. That will take me a few days. 

Some forms will load one time and then not load the next and currently we cannot find a consistent pattern between users and the forms that are not loading on which devices. Obviously this is not easy to figure out since many of the public are unknowns with unknown devices filling in many of our forms. 

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed a problem similar to ours?

Do we need to have hotfix 1014419 installed before installing hotfix 1014447 ?

Hey @████████- after installing the hotfix, it does appear that iOS devices are working again - but I notice that Help > About in Forms still shows Version 11.0.2212.30987 when the Hotfix documents sounds like it should be 11.0.2212.30996.

Is this a consequence of the install currently being via manual copy/pasting of the files instead of a patch installer - or is this an indication that I may have done something wrong?

Hi Matthew. It's neither. The reason is that the actual DLL that Forms uses to display the version number in the "About" window wasn't one of the updated files. I do admit that makes things confusing, so I'll see about getting that changed.

We've noticed this too. Apple devices on iOS 16.4.1 can't load forms or user tasks when accessed through a web browser on the mobile device. I have a support case open for this and was told that dev has been made aware of the issue.

Is it any browser on the device or only specific ones?

Neither Safari nor Chrome work, at least for us. Only browsers I've tried so far

I'm seeing it on my iPhone 12 on version 16.4.1 with both Chrome and Safari browsers.  But just for forms made in the Forms Layout Designer.  The ones made in the Forms Classic Designer appear still be working.

All browsers are affected. We can't wait for the bug to be fixed!

From what I understand though, is Edge Chrome etc on Apple devices are basically running inside a Safari frame, so it should not matter which browser you use.... They will all be affected.

We have a hotfix available and can create a support case on your behalf to provide that to you. Please reach out to your Solution Provider for further assistance.

We are also working on getting a KB article published with this fix. I'll update this post when the KB article is ready.

Can you confirm?

This is the promised batch installer that the previous hotfix was missing - but of course it includes other fixes beyond just the iOS issue?

Forms will show version 11.0.2212.31000 after installation of this hotfix?

The hotfix includes iOS issue fix and other bug fixes.

And it shows version 11.0.2212.31000 after installation of this hotfix
