webAgent / Safari fails to work correctly with iOS 8

Update : 9-23-2014
Build 6.2.1.180 is now available for download from http://customer.lenovosoftware.com/.

Update : 9-22-2014
We are currently testing 6.2.1.180 build of webNetwork that has the iOS 8 fixes.  So far it is looking very good and is finishing up with the QA Team.  It should be released in a few days if no other problems are found.



The current version of webAgent  (6.2.1.170 and below) does not work correctly with iOS 8.  Many of the swipe features are broken.

Stoneware is working on an updated release of webNetwork to incorporate changes that were made to the WebKit framework that we utilize.  Once released, customers wanting to utilize iOS 8 will be required to update to this release to restore functionality.

The webAgent itself will not require an update.  The issue will be addressed by updating the webNetwork servers themselves.

We will update this article once the release is available.  We are hoping to have it available by the end of today (9/22/2014).
