Bravo for Android is extremely unstable

Archived from the Bravo community forum (2021–2026). Some answers may refer to older versions of Bravo.

There are a lot of issues with Android and they can be inconsistent, appearing here and there, making it difficult to predict and solve. These issues go beyond just layout and impact app functionality, which makes Android unfit for user adoption.

Please, please, focus dev efforts on improving Android experience if you aren’t already.

Care to elaborate? Without specific examples, there’s not much we can do. Please share your issues with support@bravostudio.app and we will take a look

Hi Alberto,

I have been working with Bravo’s support team on these issues since December. Please find below a list of specific examples of issues that we’ve worked on, been working on or are still uncovering:

  • Login page appears to be messed up after logging out (dev said it was fixed but it reappeared)

  • [refresh:interval:x] still refreshes even when page is not visible (said it was fixed but need to check on new APK)

  • Icons disappear here and there regardless of [component:svg] (dev said it was fixed but it reappeared)

  • Modals sometimes don't behave like modals - 50% modals sometimes appears 100% on screen and doesn’t close upon refresh (new uncovered issue)

  • Pagination loads immediately without scroll (new uncovered issue)

  • Formatting is off for slider components (hasn’t been solved)

  • Image input that always triggers “Image hasn’t finished uploading” alert even if I haven’t uploaded any images (new uncovered issue)

  • Location access is prompted whenever screen refreshes due to [refresh:interval:x] (recently solved)

…among other issues.

Keep in mind, these are issues identified through just one app, which doesn’t cover the full spectrum of features.

All issues have been reported through ladesk with screen recordings and steps to reproduce. You can take a look there for reference.

Thanks,

Laura

We are testing next week with users, which was scheduled a few months back. Some of these issues just started appearing and make the app unusable. This is extremely frustrating.

I’m not sure why things that weren’t an issue before have become an issue now. Perhaps when dev adds new features pay more attention to preventing whatever is added from impacting the existing functionalities.

@Laura Meng Gotcha! I understand the frustration, we will get everything sorted out. Due to Bravo’s capabilities of creating infinite types of apps, sometimes it’s not easy to consider all cases for all apps.
