Steps to reproduce:

1. Start Wrimini fresh (without existing login)
2. Input "commentpara.de", click "Sign In"
3. In the browser, click "Login"
4. Android jumps from the browser to Wrimini, and a crash dialog pops up asking me if I want to restart.

Have you tried with the latest version from Google Play or GitHub releases. I don't have this problem.

The exception throws because of a missing/not found authorization endpoint.

Perhaps this occured because of a strange combination with #15.

Yes, this happens with the latest release 0.0.11-alpha.

[pstuifzand]

Same problem as #18.

Can you confirm which web browser you are using?

[cweiske]

Version 0.0.14 fixed it for me.

I previously tried logging into Wrimini using the "Lightning" browser (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/acr.browser.lightning/) and IceCat Mobile (https://f-droid.org/packages/org.gnu.icecat/).

At least with Lightning it works now; didn't try Icecat.

Thanks!
