Obsidian 1.14.4 not launching on iOS 15

Steps to reproduce

iOS 15.8.8 updated Obsidian to 1.14.4 today. Now it does directly quit to the iPhone home screen after a second. Restarting iPhone, removing and reinstalling Obsidian showed same results.

Long pressing the icon and selecting “Manage vaults” produced same crash.

Expected result

App launching, at least showing “Manage vault” screen.

Actual result

Returning to home screen.

Environment

iPhone 7 Plus with iOS 15.8.8 (I know, it’s old)

Just to be clear, the previous Obsidian 1.13.7 version was working fine with iOS 15.8.8?

Or did you just download it for the first time on that device/iOS?

1.13.7 worked fine until yesterday and the update.

Got it! Thanks!

The team will take a look.

Thanks this is a known problem

Good to know it’s not an issue on my end, especially now that I started paying for Sync.
I’m experiencing the same thing. It seems like the app is about to launch, but it closes right away.
Also on iOS 15.8.8 with the new version of Obsidian, 1.14.4

Hi. Same trouble for me.

wow, didn’t expect this many other 15.8.8 users. same issue here, does not launch after updating to 1.14.4, was working fine before that. thanks!

They are hiding.
I am even below at 15.8.2.

Same here. iOS 16.2, iphone SE (2ng gen). App was working previously, it auto updated overnight and stopped launching since.

If you can update to the latest of iOS 16, it will work.

Any news on when it will work for us on iOS15?
I just paid for Sync and if this won’t get fixed any time soon, I need to ask for a refund until it does. I just want to know what to expect.
Thanks

I expect it is about some webviewer or some related lib issue…? I am guessing it is trivial enough to fix.

It will be fixed in the next release. ETA unknown.

That’s a very good news! But, when you say “unknown”, does it mean one week, one month, one year? Thanks to let us know, not exactly, but approx.

“ETA unknown” ususally means next release or the one after max.

Thank you for letting us know @WhiteNoise
I think this is the kind of fix that should be released ASAP though, because it affects paying customers like me paying for Sync. It’s not just a visual bug or something that still allows working with the app.

The only reason I got Sync was to use the mobile app, otherwise I don’t see the service as being useful for me, so the app not even launching, makes the service useless.

Version 1.14.5 has fixed the issue. Had to reconnect my vault but works fine again. Thanks a lot!
