Custom Visuals no longer working with iPhone app

We have a series of dashboards built for a client using custom visuals. 

They use the iphone app to view these dashboards. 

 

Since they updated to the latest iphone app this week, the custom visuals no longer render and are replaced with a empty tile with a power bi logo inside.

 

Is this a problem with the mobile app, or just our custom visual?

 

(It seems to work fine on Android and Windows Phone).

 

Thanks

 

James

 

 

  • Hi all,

     

    I'm glad to share that Custom visuals on mobile devices are back.

    Hi,

     

    We have deployed another fix to production. 

    To make sure you're using the last js code, please pull to refresh, kill the app and re-actviate it.

    We are waiting for your feedback.

     

    Note: We are aware of the slowlyness issue and we'll invest time in it in the coming weeks.

  • Hi Ron

     

    Thanks for this - this seems to have solved the issue. Our custom visuals are appearing across all three platforms. There's definately  a speed issue - but is workable with a small number of visuals.

     

    - Just a note for others - I had to uninstall and reinstall the Power BI app AND reboot on Android before reports would render at all.

     

    Thanks

      we are still experiencing this issue (along with other sandbox related issues logged in that forum by one of my colleagues).

      Is there a time frame to get this resolved?

        Hi jamesdales,

         

         

        We are aware of this, unfortunately there is a temporary issue with costume visuals on Power BI mobile apps.

        We are working on fixing this urgently.


        We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause and will update soon.

        Thanks,

        The Power BI mobile team

    I'm developing for a Client and have experienced the same bug.

     

    Earlier today custom visuals weren't showing on a Windows 10 Mobile but I've just checked again and they're displaying correctly, albeit VERY slowly.

     

    Not sure about ios though.
