Login textbox is very laggy and misses keys pressed.

Observed behavior

Login textbox is very laggy and misses keys pressed.

Solution was to click outside the textbox then click on the textbox again. Notice on the .gif below that the "virtual keyboard" icon appeared at the upper left portion of the screen as I did this. The textbox worked after this.

I'm not sure if this is because I'm using BlueStacks emulator or not. I will try this on Android Studio emulator (still downloading) or another emulator.

Expected behavior

Login textbox should work properly.

User-facing consequences

User gets frustrated by the laggy and missing keys pressed behavior.

We should confirm that this is no longer happening.

Retested in a real Android device with one of the latest 0.15 installers and this issue described above is no longer valid as the username value is displayed as a button now instead of a field: @radinamatic

Thnak you @pcenov, I had a feeling this was due to the Bluestacks emulator (it was always laggy as heck for me 😒). Closing!
