GCDroid closes when clicking on link, if orientation not set to "Auto (Device)"

Scott 5 years ago updated by GCDroid Support 5 years ago 3

Setting the orientation (Settings/General/Orientation) to "Portrait" or "Landscape" causes GCDroid to stop with an error message when clicking on a cache link from an email or text message.

On my phone (Moto Z2 Force, Android 8.0) this is repeatable.  Changing the orientation setting back to "Auto" immediately fixes the problem and I can click on geocache links again, and open them up in GCDroid.

Thanks for the feedback, noticed the crash. Please email me directly at support(at)gcdroid.com.

That way we can resolve the issue. I think I know what's wrong but like to confirm. It seems like Google made a change in Android 8 that causes the crash, they realized it was a bad idea and within weeks removed the change. Seems like it got out ;-).

Anyways, please contact me directly...
