The Really Little One - Version 2.01
28th Feb, 2026This is a really small release, a few users reported a bug when launching the app on iPhone that would cause the app to crash.
This was reported by 2 users, but the first person that reported it was using a pre-release version of iOS on an iPhone 15.
I couldn't reproduce and wrongly I chalked it up to being a pre-release version of iOS, but did decide to improve the error handling.
That was until Patryk Raba messaged me.
He was using stock iOS - so I knew something had to be wrong.
We did a bit of debugging over DMs and identified the bug was caused by the background service not initializing properly because I missed a line of code...
Ironically this bug has been there since the first release in 2025 but was failing silently.
The only reason it surfaced now is because I decided to add fail over-states and better error handling on the onboarding process.
The lesson here is just ignore errors and they can't crash your app...
Just joking the real lesson is to read the fucking manual.
Anyway! all sorted now and special thanks to Patryk Raba for helping me debug the problem and test the solution!
