Uploading photos to the net

Yup...I just checked Chrome to try and upload a pic on the forum and it crashed too. I got as far as uploading from an existing photo and than the screen turned black and returned to my home page.

I hope Apple can fix this quickly as there must be a huge number of unhappy users because of this.
This problem is why I'm keeping one of my iPads on iOS 7.1.2 for now.

It certainly is an issue...I thought it was only safari that has the issue, but Google Chrome also doesn't work. I guess the workaround here on the Forum is uploading a pic from tapatalk.

Testing it now!

ok...now trying Puffin as JA suggested.


looks like it works...but my typing is faster than the words appear.

It's starting to make sense where the issue is.

Almost all third party browsers use the built in Web Kit engine for iOS. Puffin, because it needs to support Flash, is one of the few that does not.

I found this, it sheds some light on the technical aspects of the upload problem. http://blog.uploadcare.com/
