Nihao Jewelry - Wholesale Online app for iOS: Google OAuth Consent Screen: Privacy Policy link crashes the app

 iOS 17.5.1

Nihao Jewelry - Wholesale Online app for iOS (version 2.19.1)

07/09/24

Description: 

Here's a problem with a Google OAuth consent screen that leads to a crash. There's an app called Nihao Jewelry (NihaoJewelry) that comes up frequently in the app store. It looks to be a Blue Nile competitor. 

Like many apps, this app has an option to create an account using your Google credentials on a Google OAuth consent screen. 

That screen looks like this on web:

Instead of leading to a valid privacy policy, the app is linking to something that was hosted at: http://www.mm.com/index.php/customer/account/login/

I'm not really sure what mm.com used to be, but it did sell for quite a lot some years ago. 

Long story short: the link is dead. This dead link crashes the Nihao Jewelry iOS app.

Here's the Google OAuth screen inside of the app:

If you select the "privacy policy" link from within the iOS app, the app crashes. It shouldn't be doing this, of course.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download and launch the Nihao Jewelry - Wholesale Online app for iOS (version 2.19.1)

2. Select the Profile option in the lower right hand corner of the screen 

3. Select the "Continue with Google" option 

4. From the ""Nihaojewelry" Wants to Use" option, select "Continue"

5. From the Sign in page, select "privacy policy"

Result: Selecting the "privacy policy" link on the NihaoJewelry - Wholesale Online app's Google OAuth consent screen crashes the app 

Expected: The "privacy policy" link on the NihaoJewelry - Wholesale Online app's Google OAuth consent screen should work - selecting it should take the user to a valid privacy policy - it should not crash the app Please take a look at the attached screenshots:

Download and launch the Nihaojewelry app for iOS...

Select the "Continue with Google" option...

Select "Continue"

The "privacy policy" link crashes the app.

So apparently, you can get a refund on app subscriptions on iOS?

It’s unintuitive, but the way you do it is to go to your purchase history, choose the app you accidentally subscribed to, and click “report a problem”. And that’s the tricky part, because if I hadn’t been so upset about a $43 charge on an app I haven’t opened since install, I wouldn’t have tried “report a problem” because it’s not an error? At least not a computer error.

That button then takes you to apple’s website where you can choose an “allowed” reason for wanting your refund, and then it takes 24-48 hours to process.

I’ve been so mad, I made this to vent about the iPad update.

I don't want to do anything, I just want to cry and complain

Fun fact: The Tumblr app is about 50% buggier on iOS than Android.

Polari!!!!!! I ran into the topic while researching hidden late-victorian gay society, although its popularity in the form we know today resided in the first half/mid part of the 20th century (if i remember correctly, Parlari was the dialect we have reputable traces of dating back to the 1700s, while Polari specifically only has written records from the 1890s onward. But of course, being a spoken dialect, the distinction is bound to be blurry and overlapping). it's an absolutely fascinating piece of linguistic and queer history. I also really urge anyone reading to look into cockney rhyming slang. A substantial influence for Polari AND an incredible linguistic phenomenon of its own right.

There's actually an app on the google play store with a small vocabulary of the most used terms and phrases in Polari, a map of the linguistic influences shown above and what specific terms they contributed to the language, as well as a little game to learn what they mean.

🌟 New

On the web, we have revamped the filters on the Activity page to help you stay on top of what matters to you.

In the iOS app, you can now double-tap to Like videos and unmute them by hitting the volume up button.

🛠 Fixed

We identified an issue preventing password reset emails from being delivered to Yahoo, Hotmail/Outlook, and AOL/AIM email addresses. If you’re still not receiving password reset emails, please check your spam folder, and contact support if it’s not there either.

Adding tags should now be more intuitive in the Android app.

We also fixed a rare crash when adding photos in the iOS app. Please keep your apps up to date!

🚧 Ongoing

As you may have heard, we are currently working on migrating Tumblr’s backend to WordPress. In fact, this blog has been running under WordPress since last week. If you’ve noticed any problems with it, please let us know!

🌱 Upcoming

No upcoming launches to announce today.

Experiencing an issue? Check for Known Issues and file a Support Request if you have something new. We’ll get back to you as soon as we can!

Apps we use as a system !

Simply plural!

Simply plural is a great app for Systems! it allows you to track who's fronting, add more in depth information about who's fronting, Sort headmates out into groups, it also has a chat function.

Negatives: whilst it is a great app! it is more ideal for Smaller to medium sized Systems or Systems that switch solidly or for longer periods of time, as a bigger system outself, we find it quite difficult to use Sometimes, as it can be difficult for us regrading having to get up and log things.

they are also supportive of endogenic "Systems" and their resources do contain misinformation.

Octocon!

octocon is very similar to simply plural!

you can add headmates, categorise them, it also has a bit directly in discord, so it could be easier for some systems to use! It also has a diary feature! we have less to say about this as we personally don't use it, but it could be helpful for other systems!, it is currently only on andriod but will be releasing on IOS late 2024/2025

we feel that the app is quite clunky and can be difficult to use, especially if your already using apps like simply plural.

they also have a limit on how many alters profiles you can create to "limit the amount of fakers" - to specify direct quote from the official octocon server linked on there website, “the alter limit is to basically protect against ddos attacks, without the limit someone could take up an unreasonable amount of the bots resources and crash it. theres no way to go past it, and nobody so far has gotten close to going past the alter limit as far as we know.” I heard the term fakers being thrown around, I also assume that by “fakers” they mean endo “systems” but still the tone is there and it rubs me the wrong way considering systems that have high high alter counts (such as ourselfs) :)

Notion!

Notion is a great app! we personally dont use it to track our system but we know many Systems that do! it can easily be used for tracking fronts, alters, giving alters journal pages etc! it's very easy to use for beginners and there are many tutorials on YouTube about it! It is also used by a alot of singlets too!

our only criticism is that it isn't built for Systems! So you would need to build it all yourself or use templates if that makes sense which we know for Some Systems could be a struggle!

Mindly

Mindly is a very easy to use app, which is commonly used for making innerworld maps! It's very simply to visualise and understand!

Our negatives for mindly are that there is a limit on how many maps you can make, if you are like us for example and have different layers in your system you wouldn't be able to make multiple maps for those layers, also it is very limited on how you can customise your bubbles, with only the colour, text and emoji

Fortelling

Fortelling is a great app! you can use it to create innerworld maps every easily! being able to include images and in-depth describes also!, we also use it to create split/fussion maps, and you can also use it similarly to Simply plural as you can add in depth information and also custom fields!

Anytype

Anytype is a good app for creating private journal pages for headmates!

It's a great way to allow alters there own private space to express themselves

Our negatives is that it can be quite confusing when you first start using the app, and it could get confusing if you are a bigger System

Twinote

we love twinote! it's such a fun way to communicate with your headmates! the app is very similar to twitter but it's completely private! alters can completely create there own profiles and communicate with each other very easily!, we also know singlets that use it for role playing also! :)

Daylio

We use daylio well daily! it's a great way to track things like switches or Symptoms eta very simply! we also use it for non system related things just like sleep, school, our mood etc!! It's been so helpful for us and our doctors!

🌟 Novità

Abbiamo ridotto il limite di quante comunità gratuite a cui una persona può unirsi, fissandolo a un massimo di 10 al giorno e 3 per ora. Se non vedi l’ora di unirti a più di 10 comunità gratuite al giorno, per favore controlla il tuo entusiasmo per 24 ore. Inoltre, questo limite non viene conteggiato quando vieni invitato a una Community o quando fai richiesta di adesione a una Community.

Quando filtri i post per tag in una Community, ora evidenziamo il tag nella lista dei tag in ogni post.

I moderatori ora possono espellere e bannare i membri dalle Community, non solo gli amministratori.

Abbiamo apportato alcuni miglioramenti su come i commenti (e le risposte) vengono visualizzati sul web per sfruttare meglio lo spazio disponibile.

Le pagine dei tag ora hanno una scheda " Community" per aiutarti a trovare Community correlate a quel tag.

Gli amministratori delle Community riceveranno ora una notifica quando qualcuno richiede di unirsi alla loro Community.

🛠 Correzioni

I post pubblicati nelle prime 24 ore del 2025 non venivano indicizzati nei risultati di ricerca, ma abbiamo risolto il problema.

Quando segnali un post, un blog o una Community nelle app mobili, ora c'è un pulsante "Fatto" dopo aver inviato la segnalazione, per assicurarti di poter tornare al punto in cui eri.

Abbiamo corretto un paio di bug che causavano conteggi errati delle attività non lette a causa dell'accettazione o del rifiuto della tua richiesta di unirti a una Community.

Se hai abilitato Fast Queue (Coda rapida) in Labs, abbiamo corretto un bug che causava il pulsante della coda veloce sul web ad avere il colore sbagliato sui post con Blaze.

Il filtraggio per tag ora funziona correttamente sui post ripubblicati nelle Community.

Abbiamo risolto i crash casuali nell'app iOS qualche tempo fa. Non è necessario aggiornare l'app per ricevere questa correzione, ma ti consigliamo comunque di mantenere sempre l'app aggiornata!

🚧 In corso

Siamo consapevoli che le Community gratuite più popolari stanno affrontando una quantità sfortunata di spam. Stiamo lavorando per aggiungere strumenti che aiutino i moderatori e gli amministratori a combattere lo spam. Resta sintonizzato per ulteriori informazioni qui e nel  feedback della Community!

Siamo consapevoli che i media nelle Community non rispettano le impostazioni di autoplay del tuo dispositivo nelle app e stiamo lavorando a una soluzione.

🌱 In arrivo

Stiamo lavorando per implementare una "coda di moderazione" per le Community, che sarà un luogo dove amministratori e moderatori potranno vedere i contenuti segnalati dai membri e agire rapidamente e facilmente in un unico posto. Potremmo anche utilizzare questo spazio per spostare automaticamente i post sospetti da nuovi membri, in modo che amministratori e moderatori possano esaminarli prima che vengano pubblicati nella Community.

Hai riscontrato un problema? Invia una richiesta di supporto e ti risponderemo il prima possibile!

Wijzigingen

🌟Nieuw

Op het web hebben we de filters op de Activiteitenpagina vernieuwd om je te helpen op de hoogte te blijven van wat voor jou belangrijk is.

In de iOS-app kun je nu dubbeltikken om video's leuk te vinden en ze dempen door op de knop ‘Volume omhoog’ te drukken.

🛠️ Fixes

We hebben een probleem geconstateerd waardoor e-mailberichten voor het opnieuw instellen van wachtwoorden niet worden afgeleverd bij e-mailadressen van Yahoo, Hotmail/Outlook en AOL/AIM. Als je nog steeds geen e-mails ontvangt om je wachtwoord opnieuw in te stellen, controleer dan je spammap en neem contact op met het ondersteuningsteam als je de e-mail ook daar niet te vinden is.

Het toevoegen van tags in de Android-app zou nu intuïtiever moeten zijn.

We hebben ook een zeldzame crash verholpen die optrad bij het toevoegen van foto's in de iOS-app. Houd je apps up-to-date!

🚧 Nog mee bezig

Zoals je misschien al hebt gehoord, werken we momenteel aan de migratie van de backend van Tumblr naar WordPress. Bekijk onze Engelse blog met wijzigingen die sinds vorige week onder WordPress draait. Als je er problemen mee hebt, laat het ons dan weten!

🌱 Binnenkort

We hebben momenteel niets nieuws te melden.

Heb je een probleem? Dien een supportverzoek in (bij voorkeur in het Engels), dan nemen we zo snel mogelijk contact met je op!

Wil je feedback over iets geven? Ga dan naar onze Work in Progress-blog en ga in gesprek met de community.
