Brightnest iPhone app - Searches using Russian, Korean, Japanese or Chinese characters results in an error message.

Brightnest iPhone app (version 1.0)

The Brightnest iPhone app displays an error message if the user searches for Korean, Japanese, Chinese or Russian characters.

In addition, it is easy to get the text, "Sorry, no results." overlaid over actual returned results.

I am going to guess that this isn't exactly your highest priority at the moment, but I still found it interesting.

Please take a look at the attached screenshots.

Steps to reproduce:

1.  Launch the Brightnest iPhone app with a valid account
2.  Search for a term using Korean, Japanese, Chinese or Russian characters

Result:  Running searches using Korean, Japanese, Chinese or Russian characters results in an error message with the Brightnest iPhone app

Expected: More graceful handling of searches using Korean, Japanese, Chinese or Russian characters


Run a search.


Choose Russian or an Asian language.

Run a search.

You'll notice the error message, "An error occurred while searching." - Also look at the background behind the error message.
