[iOS] Some users are having trouble loading certain chat conversations

Report(s)

Chat not loading on iOS

iOS bug on app version 2024.42.0.615155 when I try to click on some people's chats it glitches and won't load. Also never got a notification.

iOS messages keep loading


Hey folks - our chat team is actively investigating these loading errors, and we'll update this post as we get closer to releasing a fix. For now, we have a possible workaround that may resolve this issue.

If a chat you're trying to access via the mobile app doesn't load, you may have luck opening the conversation via web browser on a computer. By sending a message again in that chat, it may fix loading issues in the chat conversation on the app too.

Thanks for your patience!


Update Hey all - this should now be fixed! You may need to force quit the app + relaunch for changes to take affect.
