Back and Menu with latest Firefox Focus not working #159

Closed utf8please closed 2 years ago

utf8please commented 2 years ago

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install latest version of Firefox Focus and Lynket from Google Play Store
  2. Open Lynket and select Firefox Focus as the custom tab provider
  3. Browse / search in Lynket (e.g. foobar in Google Search)
  4. Long-press on any link
    • Expected: shows browser menu with items like "Copy link address" and so on.
    • Actual: nothing happens
  5. Click on a link
  6. Swipe from the edge of the screen to trigger a soft "back" press
    • Expected: Navigates to the previous page in browser history (e.g. the first page with the search results)
    • Actual: The whole tab (activity) is closed (no matter how many hops one has navigated)

Firefox Focus version: 92.1.1 (This started acting up with the recent Firefox Focus app update (the one that changed the app icon)). Lynket version: 2.1.3 (wasn't updated for quite a while) Android version: Tried both latest 11 and 12 Beta on two devices, same result

Curiously, Firefox Focus itself, when used directly, doesn't suffer from the issues in 4/6. No. 6 is absolutely annoying given there's no workaround -- three-dot menu doesn't have "Navigate back", and I cannot open links in new tabs either due to No. 4. I wouldn't be surprised if this turns out to be entirely on Firefox Focus's side and there's nothing Lynket can do, but I'd still appreciate it if someone can take a look. I've been using Lynket + Firefox Focus for a long time with little issues until recently. Thanks for building this amazing app.

Resolved by latest Firefox Focus update v93.1.1. It may indeed be an issue on their side.
