App has major issues with iOS 9 update
Here are a few of the things we have seen. After a simple select component is launched it exits to another screen that was not even called
Ability to work with list elements are now changed
Ultimately what we are seeing is the navigation through our App is completely random and the ability to save data via the standard REST database services is sporadic.
Hello Hugh,
We have official support for iOS 5.1 – 8.1.3 https://devcenter.appery.io/documenta..., versions above may work unexpectedly.
Please try to debug your project remotely https://devcenter.appery.io/documenta...
Thank you for this clarification. However, if the target deployment ie 8.1 has not changed and our App worked fine on iOS 8.4.1 but now with the Apple update yesterday to iOS 9 is there a reason that our app has suddenly stopped working properly? I have very little control if a user upgrades their iOS version to 9.
Dear Hugh,
We are aware of such problem for AngularJS https://getsatisfaction.com/apperyio/...
Currently we can not say what exactly can be broken in JQM projects, have you tried to test and debug remotely your project on iOS9, this should help https://devcenter.appery.io/documenta...?
Alena, the remote weinre is very powerful and helpful in this process. However, there is nothing that I have been able to find in logging or otherwise as I compare the same app on ios8 and ios9 that would indicate why it is broken on ios9. The same logging shows up, the local storage resources are the same, the network calls are the same other than when I access a SELECT element it blinks on the screen the first time I select it and then on the second time when I select an option after it pops up and I select an option it does the code in the value change and then it takes me back to the previous page I was on automatically with no warning or reason that I can see. This tells me that at least the SELECT component on JQM has serious issues in iOS9
In case it is any help, I had the same symptom in a webapp, and worked around it by checking "native menu" on the select control.
The select component is definitely broken when the non-native option is selected. I reported this bug months ago via both email support and this forum. What's annoying and disappointing is Appery's not fixing it or even connecting the dots when related issues are reported by users having non-trivial problems - most recently:

Thank you Gregory for your recommendation. I will definitely try that.
This definitely is a good work around for the select. Now I just need to find a work around for Popups. On iOS9 popups only come up if you invoke it twice and then when the popup closes it navigates to some previous page which makes it impossible to navigate through our app.
I had the same issue with an app that I've had out there for a few years. This iOS9 update broke the app. The "native menu" option seems to fix my primary problem. Thanks!
