Amazon Cloud Player iPhone App: The term “null” appears in
an error message.
Date: 06/23/2013
iOS Cloud Player – Version 2.1.0.3018 remote_en_US
Description:
If you’re reading this, you’ll have to bear with me. This bug is only about the appearance of a
single term in one particular error message.
This has absolutely nothing to do with the convoluted steps it takes to
actually activate this error message.
This bug is about an error message in the iOS Cloud Player
app. Specifically, it’s about the term
“(null)” appearing in an error message in the app.
This is much easier to show than to describe, so please just
scroll down to the attached screenshots if you are interested.
In the app, there is an option to create new playlists. Using an admittedly whacky method, there is a
100 percent way to get “(null)” to appear in an error message related to
deleting playlists.
The specific error message I see displays the message
“Delete Playlist” and a sentence that reads, “Are you sure you want to delete
the playlist “(null)”?”
The steps required are too bizarre to describe, and aren’t
really all that important, anyways. You
can see screenshots below.
Steps to reproduce:
1.
Launch the Amazon Cloud Player iPhone App
2.
Sign in with your Amazon account
3.
Select “Playlists”
4.
Select “+ Create New Playlist”
5.
Create a new playlists with any name
6.
Select “Done”
7.
Select “Edit this playlist”
8.
Select “+ Add songs” and “X Delete” at the same
time
9.
The Delete Playlist pop-up will appear overlaid
on a screen
10. Select
“Delete” then “Done”
11. Select
the blank “Edit this playlist” button
12. Select “Delete
Result: There is a
very easy and completely reproducible way to get the term “(null)” to appear
inside of an error message in the Amazon Cloud Player iPhone App
Expected: “(null)”
should never appear in an iPhone app
