1 sentence description of the problem:
Ok, so I decided to play some projects on my iPad 9 (iPadOS version will be shared in a minute) and then they just stayed on the loading screen for like five minutes. But not all projects do this, some of mine, some of other people’s. (The ones that don’t load straight away, I haven’t got a single one to load!)
But another odd thing is, that on my other iPad (iPad Air 5) and my iPhone (iPhone 13 Pro Max) everything loads perfectly fine!
Steps to reproduce the problem [maybe not] every time:
Find a random project…
Play it, and wait…
If you have found a project with the bug, you should be waiting over five minutes for it to load if you are patient, which I am not.
I expected this to happen:
To play the projects normally But instead this happened:
Some take forever to load
FYI: I’ve been having this problem for like over two weeks, I just haven’t really found the motivation to make a report, because bug reports by me often get messed up, and it kinda annoys me, but yeah ok.
I sure hope there’s nothing wrong with my iPad.
oh well if there is I might to get to go an APPLE STORE yay
Hmm. The speed is constantly changing. It’s changing too fast to take a screenshot.
But my wifi is completely fine, I whether I’m at home, or anywhere else that I can connect to the wifi.
But what do you think the problem could be?
please don’t be my iPad cries
@Tri-Angle, it kept changing the speed, but then it settled on 20 whatever the measurement is and then went up to 26 (I don’t really know much about this kinda stuff so if you wanna know more about my wifi/internet you’re stuck lol /hj)
Nope, it’s most likely not. I’ve tried this on about three different internet devices, and not one of them has let me load selected Hopscotch projects properly.
Oh, nope, no vpn, I’m sure.
The only restrictions I have are so I can’t access anything for over 18, and Hopscotch is definitely not for over 18, and I’m being honest, I’m not actually sure those restrictions are in place /hj
Plus, I’ve been able to use Hopscotch properly on the same iPad in the past, ever since I got it (Christmas 2022) until like two weeks ago when I first encountered this issue.
And this is not a school iPad, it’s a personal one.
Yeah, and with a VPN or contect restriction of some sort, assuming it has been properly configured, you would have not been able to access any project at all. Have you tried reinstalling the app? (note: make sure you have all your drafts backed up and know your password before doing this!)
Ah, this is something I haven’t tried, but I think I might be a little scared to try it.
I mean, I do have my passwords saved, but I’m just not sure.
Is there anything else I could do?
Yes, there are some more steps you could take before doing that. However, I just tried opening the project in the OP. Is the project you linked supposed to be a black screen? If not, the project doesn’t load on my end either if I try to open it in the browser. Could be an issue on Hopscotch’s end.
Nope, it’s supposed to be a game featuring Chillana.
But the thing is, for me, it never fully loads, it’s just the white screen with the spinny thing to say it’s loading (which I’m sure it’s not /j)
For me, it just shows a black screen on Firefox. Very weird. I’d wait and see if THT picks this up and looks into if this is an issue on your (and my) end or if it’s a problem on their end. I tried to open it in the browser and that is buggy sometimes, so it could just have been that.
Well, I’m using the actual app, not on the web.
I’m just still hoping there’s nothing wrong with my iPad, because it doesn’t do the same issue on my other iPad or my iPhone, but I’m sure it’s not.
Thank you for your help so far, @/William04GamerA, I think I might go and test some projects to see if they load or not.
Yeah, I don’t think there is a hardware issue at least.
That’s a good idea! If you find any that don’t load, could you take note of their links and post them here so we can see if they have something in common or not?
