app hangs on switching lemmy accounts

I'm using Connect 1.0.267. And everytime I switch accounts via the side tab, the app takes a long time to load the switched account and there's a spinner going on but it never switches.

I've tried logging out of the accounts and logging in back afresh I have but it still doesn't work.

The only way to get it to work is to

  • switch account on Connect
  • go to the android app info page
  • force quit and open the app from scratch.

Then I can get to the switched account.

Am not sure if I'm the only one having this as I cannot find other similar bug reports on this.

Appreciate any help. Thank you.

I'm on 269 on Android 14 and I get this problem too. My accounts are on two diff instances, but it also happens if I go to switch accounts and pick the account I'm already on.

I'm using v269 and am able to successfully switch between Lemmy accounts. My accounts are on different instances if that changes anything.

Edit: Android 14 here

I just updated to 269 and the issue still persists. I'm also on 2 different instances with my 2 accounts. I still have to force stop Connect while switching and then reopen to switch. I'm on android 13. So I don't know if that info is useful pertaining to this.

The same thing is still happening in 275.
