Known Bugs

  • Forwarding from shift.ms to shift.ms/app requires a page load before it identifies the users logged in state.
  • When we push an update, some users will have a blank stream, this is fixed by a refresh.
  • Logging into the site providing an @googlemail.com account when you signed up with an @gmail account and visa vera will lead to a new sign up rather than sign in.
  • There is some errant text and menu styling that has escaped our reviews.
  • Film recommendations aren't always coming through.
