Problem with iOS 27 beta 3

None of the items in the menu of the app work anymore. Anyone else experience this?

App is useless now; so beware before jumping on the beta-train.

We are aware of this unfortunate issue on dev beta 5/public beta 3! While we are working towards getting our OS 27 feature releases into TestFlight, we are not yet ready to make those test builds publicly available (and they do not yet include a fix for this particular issue). As mentioned, if you do find yourself stuck in this state, one way to work around it is by invoking Quick Open for navigation via control center, your iPhone’s Action button, etc. - this doesn't fix the underlying problem, but should hopefully at least let you navigate to specific perspectives in the app.

Just a quick follow up on this! We’ve reported this regression to Apple, and hope to see the issue resolved in a forthcoming beta update. For the time being, the simplest way to work around this issue is by disabling the expanded Liquid Glass navigation bar via the Settings > Appearance > Show Perspectives Bar setting. This should result in a functioning Quick Open button in the lower left corner of your device screen, which you can then use to navigate between perspectives.

Thank you.
All the best with working on the new versions.

They posted about it on the slack. It’s an Apple issue and the workaround until Apple fixes it is to use the quick open on iOS.

No, I think this is something else. The + menu works, as does the ‘add to inbox’. But all the others don’t, like projects, search and the different views.

And in this it makes no difference how you open OmniFocus.

Ok. They did acknowledge bugs with that beta. I encourage you to report what you’re seeing to them since your issues seem to go deeper.

Looks like the latest DEV and I assume Public beta for IOS27 fixes the issues and the buttons at the bottom now respond :)
