Dear Brendan,
I’m pretty happy with this new option to join fields. However, i remarked a problem with the IOS version. I’m using tapforms for Mac and IOS. On the mac version i have a referenced fields which yields 681 records. This works fine. The IOS version however crashes on this It works fine when the referenced field returns 5 or 25 records, but the one that returns 681 records, causes the app to hang and to crash. on my Imac and macbook, no problem. You might find 681 an awful lot.
Using this to suggest that on IOS, the possibility to limit the number of fields in het linked records table, as you can on the mac version. Just a suggestion.
Keep on the good work :-)
Best regards
Dirk
Hi Dirk,
Hmm… it might be a memory issue on iOS. Or it could be something else.
Would you be able to email me a backup of your document so I can experiment with it to find out what’s triggering the crash?
Thanks,
Brendan
Hi Brendan,
thanks for your swift reply a little bit difficult to mail the document as it is 150mb. i send a dropbox link to support@tapforms.com

Hi Dirk,
Thanks for the file. I’ll have to think about how to properly handle that now. Also, Apple’s Mail Drop function allows you to email multi-gigabyte file attachments.

Hi Brendan, thanks for your swift response.
i can imagine that my usage is exceptional. Maybe on a more recent ipad the problem doesn’t occure, i use an ipad air.
Thanks for the apple mail drop option, i didn’t have a clue of its existance.
Regards
Dirk
It crashes due to running out of memory on my iPad Pro 9.7″ too, so it’s not just the older devices.
I’m still not quite sure what to do about it yet, other than to simply limit the number of rows I fetch from the Join on the iOS version.
