popups with IOS 14?

By Troy B, 21 October, 2020

iOS and iPadOS

Hi all,

Ever since installing IOS 14 on my iPhone 7 I'm continually getting popups in at least 3 of my apps as I swipe through them. From what voiceover is telling me it sounds like pictures are popping up based on what I'm highlighted on at the time but is there a way to get rid of that? I waited until 14.0.1 to upgrade hoping that at least some of the bugs from the original release would be gone, and this is the only what I'd call a bug that I've noticed but it's quite annoying. I even installed 14.1 last night and the popups are still there.

Btw the popups may be occurring in more apps than this but the apps I've noticed it in so far are dice world, SmartNews, and weather gods.

Can you give some examples…

Can you give some examples of what VO is saying during the "pop ups"? I'm thinking that maybe they are actually VO's attempt at describing images behind different icons in apps, etc.

Hi Troy,

Can you describe the content of the popups please?

The only ones in weather gods should be if e.g. you've run out of favourite slots, you're about to delete a place with active notifications or you are trying to setup notifications but you have them disabled?

Bit concerning to be honest.

sorry, no more popups with IOS 14.1

Hi all,

I thought I was still getting the popups after installing IOS 14.1 last evening, but if I was getting them then they're gone now in all of the apps I mentioned in my original post.

Sorry for the confusion, I was going by memory when I wrote the original post this morning so either I was so used to the popups in 14.0.1 that I thought I was still getting them after going to 14.1 and I wasn't, or unlikely but maybe something happened overnight that finally took the popups away. Either way they're gone now.

Thanks

Thanks for confirming Troy.

There are some strange bugs with the iOS14 updates.
