Just bumping this up as this is a current issue keeps happening each time a Zoom Meeting on iOS gets initiated on iOS.

Just as an aside, we always test and read the changelog of any Zoom release and update regularly, the quarterly deprecations policy Zoom MUST have improvements and no regressions to warrant us to upgrade.

Instead we are forced to upgrade to a version which the Zoom SDK contains regressions for which we are blamed for by our end users.

Why does Zoom feel the need to force us to upgrade to SDK versions that have regressions, even though the previous SDKs are more stable than the newer ones.

Bumping again.

Is anyone on Zoom looking into this issue, this crash is currently happening right now.

Bumping once more.

This version is 6.2.3.18330 and we are still experiencing this issue despite Zoom saying this issue was ‘fixed’.

Which is very confusing.

@chunsiong.zoom Could you look into this on your side if this is still the case?

Bumping yet again.

Can someone from Zoom maybe (@chunsiong.zoom) look into this?

This is an active issue when people try to type in the chat it crashes constantly.

This issue is currently happening on versions above 6.2.0 which means that the ‘fix’ listed in the changelog:

Fixed an issue where the app would crash when sending chat messages.

Doesn’t work at all, the issue is still there above 6.2.0.

You need to try typing in the chat on iOS Meeting SDKs above 6.2.0.

I have to stress that this issue is happening in production apps. when Zoom have enforced and forced us to upgrade to a broken Zoom version.

@carson.zoom Can you also look into this?

@kaitlynnst could you help me capture an SDK log?

@chunsiong.zoom Can I send the log privately? This is urgent and this issue is still happening.

I’ve had a look into this and it is the ENTIRE keyboard that makes the chat freeze every time.

Is there an email I can send this urgent information to @chunsiong.zoom?

Is there anyone at Zoom who I can contact about this?

Hi @kaitlynnst,

Thank you for contacting us and I am glad this issue is fixed with our latest MSDK.
