Crashing On Physical iOS Device When WiFi Is Off #56

Open DavidHCox opened 4 years ago

DavidHCox commented 4 years ago

I put my app on my physical device (iPhone XR v13.1.3). I have not tested this out on Android yet.

With the WiFi on I tap on one of my containers it passes in the YouTube video id to the playYoutubeVideoById() and it pulls up the player playing the video working just fine. When I do all of those things with the WiFi off, so it's just using cellular data, it does not work.

I don't know if this is just a problem with the package or if I am doing anything wrong in general with just the way I setup my entire app haha.

Has anybody ever even heard of this problem in general with turning on and off the WiFi to make something work/not work?

same problem iOS works on wifi, not on cellular

This is a strange one. Using PlayYoutubeVideoById()

Iphone X - AT&T - Ios 13.1.3 - Model MQAN2LL/A Wifi on - works Wifi off - fails

Iphone 6s Plus - AT&T - Ios 13.2.2 - Model MKTT2LL/A Wifi on - works Wifi off - fails

Iphone 6s Plus - Google Fi - Ios 13.2.2 - Model MN382LL/A Wifi on - works Wifi off - works

I will swap the Google FI sim into the failing Iphones on Monday but at this point, it seems like AT&T is at fault.

Using url_launcher to open youtube directly does work on the problem devices.

The issue is that AT&T wireless is blocking access to www.youtube.com/get_video_info This started around Nov 2nd.

@rchabot32 Wow! Thank you so much for all the testing!

Do you mind linking where you found your answer in your last comment?

I can see one of my production apps failing via Firebase performance monitoring when the cell provider is AT&T. I have a suspicion that it is due to 'Stream Saver' but I can't verify that as every AT&T cell that I can test on has an unlimited data plan. When you have an unlimited data plan you can not turn off stream saver.

That is crazy! Again, appreciate you commenting your struggles and outcomes.
