Home Assistant keeps stopping on login - Android app

It worked yesterday, but I’ve had to do a factory reset on my tablet.
I’ve installed the root certificates from Let’s Encrypt, but apart from that I’ve got a completely vanilla cheap tablet.

  • Welcome to Home Assistant App
  • Select Your Home Assistant Server - https://etc

  • “Home Assistant has stopped”, Open App Again

I’ve had the exact same issue on an old tablet. I’ve reverted to the previous app/apk version (2024.3.4) and it’s fixed the issue.
The tablet is an old Samsung Galaxy tab S2, still running Android 7 (as Samsung don’t bother updating older devices.) I wonder if this is the issue?

Your issue is unrelated to the OP. Your issue will be fixed in the next release.

I am allso having issue where app is crashing on login on an old Android tablet. I’ve reverted to the previous app/apk version (2024.3.4) and it’s fixed the issue.

Can’t revert, as I did a deinstall and reinstall. Also Android 7; my phone from 2018 is still quite new and I don’t plan to get a new one soon. Looking forward to dskohouki’s promise of a fix.

I have the same problem on a Galaxy S2, since the last update.

Same thing here. Came to notice this morning that my wall mounted Samsung TabA android tablet was saying “Home Assistant keeps stopping”. Downloaded an older APK and running fine now. Must be something with the latest Android app not playing nice with my old tablet.

I’ve managed to extract my logfiles, so I’ve posted a bug on github

Guys if you read my post a day ago you will see we are aware and a fix will be released soon. Duplicate bugs are not necessary.

Quite. I was glad to see it, thank you. And sorry for mangling your name in my first answer.

Thank you for the new version - my Galaxy S2 running Android 7.0 is working fine again with the Companion App V2024.4.1-full :+1:
