Cheap Android tablet, cannot click on screen button

lick your finger

The Natural Philosopher explained on 02/03/2021 :

Nah - As I said the screen buttons work fine with all the other apps, apart from this one single app.

Doesn't the virtual keyboard have something like an arrow or return button?

USB keyboard plugged in via an OTG adapter?

Just 2 random thoughts:

Have you tried while connected to the internet?

Have you installed any other apps since buying the tablet - just so you know there's not a problem with news app generally?

Max Demian laid this down on his screen :

Yes, but it just causes the keyboard to disappear, nothing else.

Yes, it has a good wifi connection.

No, but it did update all of it's built in apps. I could try another app.

Clear the cache.

done that a couple of times..

Its more likely their server isnt responding given it's the only app that doesn't work.

That?s mad, he doesn?t need to with the other apps.

Try installing a different keyboard app (eg Google's Gboard or Microsoft's Swiftkey) from Google Play, then make it as the default in Settings.

Once the details have been set up, there is no need to re-enter them in Brewspy - they seem to be stored. My two other copies of Brewspy are able to connect to the server without any problems and show data from a previous brew. Which suggests the server itself is OK.

So are you saying its a physical fault on part of the screen or could it be the web site buttons which are not touch screen friendly? if the latter then the owner of the site needs to fix it I'd have thought. Brian

I think he's saying it's a perfectly good touchscreen, but that one app is not responding to events from the on-screen keyboard.

I meant the server isnt responding to the login button tap.

Yes, that is the evidence that the server itself isnt the problem.

Likely the problem is that the config of that tablet isnt able to access the server properly for some reason. Check the basic settings for which DNS is being used on the one that works and the one that doesn't and stuff like that.

It happens that Brian Gaff (Sofa) formulated :

I have been in touch with the softwares author and it turned out to be an incompatibility between the software and the earlier version of Android on the pad. He has fixed that issue, the login button is now working, but it thows up another issue with the login server.

So still not quite there...
