salvariaConnect is borked
Have you tried logging in on different servers?
Do you have any DNS or firewall settings active?
Mine started doing the exact same thing this evening. Using Blorp instead at the moment to access Lemmy.
moseschruteBlorp dev here. Happy to have you! Let me know if there is anything you need.
sirxdaemonAre you able to bring up the main menu on the left and access Settings? Either with a swipe right on the left edge of the screen or tap and hold, then swipe right on the left edge.
I’m on 416 as well but I haven’t seen this problem though.
For me, tapping anywhere in the darker region does nothing. Any action in the white space backs me out to the phone’s home screen, Connect is still open in the background though.
Just to confirm, you started seeing this after updating to 416? Or was it fine on 416 and you started getting this today?
What I would try doing is clearing the cache. But don’t clear the app storage or you’ll lose some stuff. Clearing the cache may or may not help; depending on what’s causing the problem.
My app is set to auto-update, currently on the 416 version, but not sure when the update occurred. Cleared the cache earlier, but issue persists. I verified it wasn’t the VPN I use, problem occurs whether it’s on or off.
If you can’t access the main menu and you’ve cleared the cache then unfortunately there’s nothing left but wait for an update to resolve the problem. It looks similar to a problem a bug a few versions back and the dev is quite active so hopefully you’ll see the update in the coming days.
I ended up uninstalling Connect this afternoon, and reinstated. Seems to work fine after that. I will comment here again if Connect glitches out with the same issue. Thanks for helping out!
The dev has submitted v1.0.417 and the changelog mentions potentially fixing this. I’m on 417 now but I didn’t come across the problem in 416 so let us know if it persists.
Yes, that worked. I don’t know what entails “app data”, but it’s all gone now. I figured my saved account and subscribed communities are saved at the server, so how harmful can it be?
Turns out I didn’t save my login in my passwordmanager :D
I’ve reset the app without thinking it through before so I can relate.
For reference, if there are others who don’t know how to clear the app data, here’s the steps for me on a Pixel 6 on Android 16. Some things may vary a bit depending on your device and Android version. I tap and hold on Connect and then tap on App Info in the popup menu. Tap on Storage & cache. Then tap on the clear cache button. Don’t tap on the clear storage button since you’ll lose some stuff.
