Projects shared by email sometimes do not open (Android and iOS)

[chrisgarrity]

Could also be related to issue #14 - sjr projects saved in dropbox or google drive don't open.

project Dance2 (in the mailbox for [email protected]) opens ScratchJr, but if you are already viewing the projects list it doesn't appear. If you open another project and return to the list it is there.

Other than the weird issue with Dance2 above I have not been able to reproduce the problem on either android or IOS, At this point the default android email has been replaced with Gmail. When I tried to open the android email on one of our tablets, it put a message that it was not longer supported with a button to open Gmail. Gmail works.

I was not able to reproduce on iOS even though we have had reports from people saying they couldn't share between iPads. At this point I've asked Kaitlyn to collect more information from anyone that reports this type of bug:

• type of tablet (brand etc)
• operating system and version
• screen shots of what appears instead of the 'open in ScratchJr'
• send info@scratchJr the same email so we can see if it's something in the message.

For now I'm going to delay this to the next iteration.

@chrisgarrity Re your comment:

I think that may be the same thing we saw in #60.

Looking at iOS project settings wondering if some of the issue may be the fact that we define a document type and an 'exported UTI', but not a corresponding 'imported UTI'.

We were not able to reproduce this one, and were not able to get more details from the user. So I'm closing it. We're tracking the ability to open projects from dropbox or google drive separately: https://github.com/LLK/scratchjr/issues/14.
