iPhone Spark Core app: can't log in / create account (dashes in domain name)

Hi, on pairing “my” second spark core via the iPhone app (iOS 8.0.2) I realized I can not create user accounts that have a dash in their domain name part.

The “create account” or “log in” buttons remain “greyed out” until I remove the dashes from the domain name.

Example: foo@ba-rfoofoo.com

I would be interested to hear if this is a freak fringe case or if I am not alone with this. Can anyone confirm? If so, is the Spark team aware of this?

Thank you very much: Arvel

@dave any inputs on this?

Hey All,

Oh goofy! Yes, you can’t create an account on the iOS app with a hypen in the domain, but you can with a hyphen in the username. I opened an issue for this here:

In the meantime you should be able to use the build ide (https://www.spark.io/build), or the spark-cli ( https://github.com/spark/spark-cli ) to claim and pair your core, sorry about that! :slight_smile:

Thanks,
David
