Screen broken after opening Qfield the second time after installation

Hi there,

I am having the following issue: I run Qfield v3.5.1 - Fangorn under Android 12. When I open the app for the first time, everything runs smoothly, I can successfully open one of the test projects. But when I close the app and open it the second time (and every time after that), I get a “broken” screen and can’t use the app in any way (screenshot attached below).

Has anyone experienced similar problems? I already tried installing all available updates for Android, but that did not solve the problem.

All the best,
Andi

geopanda1 , ouf, that doesn’t look good – what device are you running QField on?

The device is a CAT S42 smartphone

Ok, I just emptied Qfield’s app cache and this seems to have fixed the issue (at least for now) :slight_smile:
