Since the latest update, the app sometimes crashes when I’m upvoting, opening a post, etc.

I don’t know if there are crash logs, but I’m willing to look

    You’re on lemmy.world which is still using v0.17 and the new jerboa version requires v0.18 to fully work.

    lemmy.world will be updating when v0.18.1 gets released so for the time being revert back to jerboa 0.0.34/33. It’ll crash every time you launch so turn on airplane mode, go to the login menu and only then turn airplane mode off and click log in

      0.0.33/34 still crashes for me on launch with airplane mode on.

        Hmm, not sure about that then. If you have no Internet access it shouldn’t crash as it has no way to get the incompatible data

          🤷‍♂️ I’ll just wait for the instance update. Using liftoff app in the meantime.

            The workaround I found is:

            1. Have Jerboa 0.0.34 installed
            2. Open https://lemmy.world/login in the browser
            3. Tap the icon to open it in the app

            This way you’ll be able to login and use the app normally.

              That did work.

              I did that, but had to enable airplane mode to be able to navigate do the login screen.

              Thanks!

                I’m glad it worked :)

                My answer was incomplete: you should’ve opened the login screen before tapping the icon. I’ve just updated it.
