My first market! Let's see who supports fixing a bug that's kinda annoying. I'll note that I'm at risk of losing my stake on the market in question, but hey, them's the breaks. (Get it? Breaks?)

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Launch the iOS Manifold app, or create a home screen app-bookmark thingie from any Manifold page in mobile Safari and launch that.

  2. Search for "manalink" markets, you should find this one as top hit: https://manifold.markets/IsaacKing/will-at-least-200-people-claim-the

  3. Click the manalink in the description.

  4. Receive free money! End up back at a previous screen.

  5. Repeat steps 2 and 3.

  6. Get an "already got free money" error

Expected: have a back button or an "oh, darn" button that takes you back where you were.

Actual: are now permanently exiled to remain on the manalink screen. Permanently until you quit and restart the app, that is. It's a metaphorical permanance.

@ian Dang! I thought about trying to take this on as a first PR, but this works too 😄 Thank you, and congratulations on winning in the market! 😂

predicted YES

@MattCWilson oh frig, next time lmk if you're going to work on it and I won't touch it!

@ian No sweat! Will do, I found another one that I’d love to scratch as a fun project over my looming holiday break.

tbph I was not expecting such a rapid turnaround so, seriously, way delighted there 😄

I will absolutely let you know! Thanks again 😁

Heh, yeah we need the bottom bar to be visible on this page. Quick fix is using your finger, swipe from the left towards the right starting at the outmost middle left edge of your phone to use the built in back command.

@ian Whoaaaa secret iOS tricks for the win! 😄
