Re: [cobirds] problem posting to ebird

Multiple people have reported this behavior with iPhones since the last eBird update. For some users all returns to good after a few app restarts and often a full power down of the phone and then power up. 

This has only been affecting iPhone users on iOS 16.1 or higher. The newest version of eBird's app (2.15.3) seems to be the culprit so far. 

All users on Facebook's eBird discussion community that are experiencing this problem have found the issue to be fleeting. 

I hope this can set you at ease r it may not fix the problems. 

Good luck,

Bryan

I use ebird frequently, but today I had a problem posting an observation.  I researched on ebird and sent a request for help but it looks like it might be days for a reply.

Here's the problem:  When I add an observation such as 3 house finch  or  3 hofi  the auto ID line says "can't find your bird?' and when I press that and then press "search all species" it ends my session.  App is up to date, Merlin works fine and the locations I've tried I've used many times before.

I'd appreciate any suggestions.
