It appears you cannot log in to WI on iOS 7. If you're planning on upgrading, login before upgrading and don't log out. That way when the upgrade is done and you put your backup on, it will auto log you in when you connect to the MP server.

There's a file in the WI folder (in the device's file system) that tells it whether or not to auto log you on and if it does auto log you in what username and password to use. I found that you can edit the file to allow you to login as anon or as any account (any account you know the username and password to). This does require the device to be jailbroken if you wanna do this without a PC/Mac, the device does not have to be jailbroken to do this if you can use a PC/Mac. If you guys would like the info on how to do this i can write some instructions up on what to do. Until scott updates WI, this is the only way to switch accounts that i know of.

Can you give us an estimate on how long that will take? Most of the player have devices that support iOS 7. Until this is fixed, we can't log in or switch accounts, create rooms, join private rooms, and a few other things.

So far here's the bugs that I have heard of.

Can't log in on account
Can't join private rooms
Can't create rooms
Can't download maps from custom URL

I just noitced the 'Players', 'Done' and 'Send' chatroom buttons are lower than they were too (it doesn't effect their use, it just doesn't look as good).

If you exit WI (from anywhere in the app) by double tapping the home button (which opens multitasking), and then from multitasking navigate to another app or to the homescreen, the next time you launch WI you will get a back screen on your device for around 5 seconds and then it will crash to the homescreen. Basically, when you exit WI via multitasking, you have issues when you go to open it again. Furthermore, if you exit WI using multitasking and you were playing single player, mission auto-save and auto-reload doesn't work.
Everything works fine when WI is exited by just pressing the home button once and returning to the homescreen.

Is it really true you shot your router? Can't you update over your cellular data?

...Did Chris actually shoot his router or is it just burned out? Either one sounds like something Chris would do. XD

I found a crashing bug on iOS 7. If you have room chat up, shake your device (which brings up the undo menu), and tap undo, it crashed WI. It only works if theres nothing to undo. Like if you send a chat, and then do it, WI crashed, but if you type something backspace it, and then undo it, WI wont crash.

Luckily thanks to N104 it is possible. But I hope it is fixed for new players soon.
