bfoutty Code is Art Posts: 185 Reg: Jun 12, 2011 Youngstown, OH 12,650	confirm \| cancel 01/11/15 10:02 AM (9 years ago) iOS 8.1.2 push causing app to freeze for 60 secs I finally updated one of my apps for iOS with push notification fix mentioned here by Chris1: <a href="http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=DA308929DBC29D1DB83B7A8&sortColumn=FT.id&sortUpDown=DESC&currentPage=1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=DA308929DBC29D1DB83B7A8&sortColumn=FT.id&sortUpDown=DESC&currentPage=1</a> When you implement this fix in iOS 8.1.2 the app will register for push, the app launches the first time and functions as expected. However, on subsequent launches the app the app freezes on the loading screen for approximately 60 seconds each time.

The 60 second delay makes for a terrible user experience. I know that the delay is due to the communication to the servers to register for push each time.

The first line of the debug console shows this: 2015-01-11 10:50:59.335 itctc[1055:298250] BT_device: registerForPushNotifications: Response: (null) 2015-01-11 10:50:59.340 itctc[1055:298250] BT_loadConfigDataViewController: fadeInStartView If I comment out the promptForPushNotification code the app launches and then behaves as expected. The 60 second delay makes for a terrible user experience. I know that the delay is due to the communication to the servers to register for push each time. Has anybody else experienced this problem or is this something new?
