Hi all,
wondered if there was a fix for the Whoops! Looks like there was an error: Could not find an object mapping for keyPath:'' that occurs on the iOS application.

I get this message whenever I try and sync observations and refresh the projects page (as it is not showing projects made in the last two months). I've had it as a recurring problem since about early May. 

I think it may be tied to the bug where my profile image and my number of identifications does not display either, the former just shows an empty ring and identifications is at 0.

Hey James,

Have you tried upgrading the app? You might not be using the latest
version. I'd also try signing out and signing back in again.

Now you mention I think it was the update that started giving these messages. I'll reset the app and such later see if that helps.

I did a soft reset on the phone, closed instances of the app, signed out. This hasn't fixed it. However I tried signing out and signing back in twice more and that has since fixed it.

I am getting the same error on my my iPad Air 2 with iOS 9.0.2 and inat v. 2.6.2 build 234 (iPad thinks this is the latest version - no updates available). It was working fine after about 6 observations and suddenly this error started during same session. In have signed in and out multiple times, restarted iPad, deleted photos to make room.

Hey Brian

Sorry, these errors keep dogging us. I think we have some fixes for
similar problems in our upcoming release, but until then, if signing
out isn't fixing it, try deleting and re-installing the app. Some of
the problems with the current release are definitely related to data
incorrectly left over after signing out. Another potential source of
the problem is adding your observations to projects, so if you have
some observations that just aren't uploading, you might try removing
them from any projects you've added them to.

I was receiving same error on my iPhone 4S and the key to resolving it was moving observation from a project.
