The webview often provides back functionality depending on your platform (eg on iOS you can swipe from the edge of the screen), however the app allows people to go backwards/forwards by swiping on the app bar as well. 

 

App bar is the thing up the top, it currently says "Forums", the box next to the close button. 

 

You can also get forward/back buttons by tapping the currently open tab, or there's also a button to add these buttons permanently right at the top of the advanced browser settings.

Is it just me who has an issue with chat 3.0 on the messages page? When I try to type in chat it reloads the page every time. 

Also having difficulty with the PDA api for accessing FF script.

 

Any advice would be incredibly gratefully appreciated :)

On top of what Kwack said, you can also activate a floating button with navigation buttons (or other actions)

This is probably an issue with Torn. Have you tried clearing your browser cache (in PDA Settings, Advanced Browser Settings, at the bottom)?

Regarding FF I can't say, but others might know.

I hope this is the right place to ask for help - I use Torn PDA daily (hourly, minutely…?) and every once in a while the app loads up as if it was updated (the updates log appears) and has removed all of my custom scripts. This has happened at least three times. I have just deleted the app for the first time and again reinstalled all my scripts so hoping that solves the problem.

 

 I’m curious if I am doing anything that causes it to delete my scripts as the app still has all my custom buttons like Xanax on my items page. All scripts are pretty legit and straightforward (e.g. fast slots, BSP, etc), nothing crazy. Figured I’d post and see what smarter people than me have to say or at least let someone who works in it know about a potential bug. 

Kwack [2190604]

Just the scripts clearing and nothing else makes me suspect the data is frequently corrupting.

 

Hopefully the reinstall fixes, if not then we'll have to look into this. Discord will definitely be your best place to reach out with device details and if you can reproduce it.

 

You may also want to use the cloud save feature to store your scripts on the server, so if it does break again, it's two taps back to being restored.

Has something been changed on the home page of torn pda ? It’s no longer showing the items I have in my bazaar yet it’s open ? It was working yesterday! Great app nonetheless

Myself and a few others are having an issue with the home screen of PDA not displaying the “Basic Info” section. It’s just vanished, tried logging out and back in but nothing. It has done this before but came back after a while. Any reason it’s doing this? Thanks

Spooder [3463468]

Same here. I had this issue before but the basic info comes back after a while. Currently have this issue again and basic info still isn't back yet :(

Manuito has mentioned before that it's because of the reworked API settings Torn did, is it the same reason now maybe? 

 

Edit. Just realized what else is missing and it's the Misc side I think. A few long timers like racing, Edu, bank investment etc is missing too 

MWRacing [3466678]

Yep also have the same issue here but at least it isn't just me! I thought I was tripping when I couldn't find the basic info 😂

rigamortis90 [2919940]

Iv always used PDA but today for some reason my basic info card has disappeared off my profile, I can still go to settings and drag it to where I want it in the order but its not visible, all the rest are still there, anyone know what's happened to it? Please flick me a message if anyone can help, cheers

Thanks a lot for all your comments and reports.

 

We are fully aware of this issue, which has been caused by a change in the data structure coming from the API. The API is continually being improved by the Torn development team, with whom we are working closely to ensure that Torn PDA is able to utilize the latest enhancements and data available.  While this improves the information we are able to show in the app, it is not without risks, and sometimes we make mistakes that result in Torn PDA being unable to display the data it should. We could of course wait for the API developments to be finished before making the transition to the new models, but we believe it's worth the risk.

 

We have let them team know where the problem lies. If we can't get this corrected in the next few days, the new app public release, which should happen sometime next week, will fix this in any case.

I've been using Torn pda for a long time now without any issues but today the basic info and misc on profile didn't show at all it magically just disappeared and I tried deleting and re installing the app but to no avail , after doing this I saw some messages on this forum which made me realize it was not just me but after reinstalling it my notifications won't work, and when I try to test notifications it take 5~10 mins before the notification is sent

Love torn PDA. It's become an indespensanlbe tool daily. And as my country bumkin self figures out how the use more and more tools in it, it just grows! Thank you for such an awesome thing like PDA. 

 

Two minor things I've seen. Whenever I send cash to another player it autofills the number so it's either send the full amount in my wallet or not sending anything. Would be nice if that wasn't an autofill section. Second is the long pull down making tabs disappear and appear. A lot of people just do that as habit to refresh the screen and I seem to see the question pop up in faction forms at least every couple of weeks or newer users wondered why the tabs disappeared.

Hi. I want to report not only profile is not working. Neither are stock alerts or stcok portfolio which are very important to stock traders on mobile.  The portfolio is frozen (no new buy/purchase/prices are showing)

I noticed Torn Stats Battle Stats works by manually update but the portfolio on stocks is frozen too.

 

Maybe PDA takes that from Torn stats or maybe not only PDA is broken for Tron API changes. 

Tornsy.com is working for the price but it doesn't have alerts or portfolio. IDK what part of the API is broken but it's not all of it (on stock trading at least).

 

I appreciate you put the notification for all of us and explained the problem. Thanks for your awesome work all of you (kwac and all the team that helps out)
