Can only update via mobile data. #278

Since my Samsung J7 was updated to Android ver 7.x I can only check for and download updates via mobile data, WIFI is turned off. I think it might be a permissions issue with accessing network/phone status and is preventing the app from seeing when the phone is connected to WIFI. I have tried to use the app when my phone was connected to different hot spots as well with the same issue happening there as well. the app version is 1.1.15(201807230)

can you check if there is any firewall/antivirus that block the application from accessing internet? can you open the website from the browser when you are connected using wifi?

I've checked the permission, it should have access to internet. https://github.com/calvinaquino/LNReader-Android/blob/master/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml#L6

I have check and there is no anti-virus or firewall on my phone. I can see the web site just fine from the browsers in my phone when connected to WI-FI, also other apps have on problem connecting to the internet. I'm wondering if you might need to force asking for the perms and there might be another one needed for my this version of Android as even my camera app had to ask for perm just to access the camera, location, and storage.

Here is an update. The app is accessing the internet, but it takes a couple of hours just to update one chapter or download one image.

Weird, I can download the chapter just fine in my device using wifi. Can you try on different phone or different provider?
