MFMessageComposeViewController much slower on iOS 7

Question

I\'ve an app for sending email and text messages.

The problem that i\'m having is that the loading of the MFMessageComposeViewController much slower on iOS 7 than it was

Answer 1

I have the same problem. I made the composer strong reference with

@property (nonatomic, strong, retain) MFMessageComposeViewController *messageComposer;

Then owner class calls this method:

-(void)sendSMSFromController:(UIViewController*)controller
{
    self.messageComposer = [MFMessageComposeViewController new];

    if([MFMessageComposeViewController canSendText]) {
        [_messageComposer setBody:_body];
        [_messageComposer setRecipients:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:_recipient, nil]];
        [_messageComposer setMessageComposeDelegate:self];
        [controller presentViewController:_messageComposer animated:NO completion:NULL];
    }
}

Composer appears quickly but disappears slowly. Finalizes with:

- (void)messageComposeViewController:(MFMessageComposeViewController *)controller didFinishWithResult:(MessageComposeResult)result
{
    switch (result) {
        case MessageComposeResultCancelled:
            NSLog(@"Message sending cancelled.");
            break;

        case MessageComposeResultFailed:
            NSLog(@"Message sending failed.");
            break;

        case MessageComposeResultSent:
            NSLog(@"Message sent.");
        default:
            break;
    }


    [controller dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^(){
        self.messageComposer = nil;
    }];
}

After restarting my device it clearly works. Before restart (after messing with MessageService by sending invalid recipients) it failed.
