Hey @XPMai thanks for reporting this. If possible do you think you can provide me with more info?
Another thing, does clearing app data fix the issue at all?
There was a point in time where I uploaded an old release to the Play Store that did not have a proper database migration, so there is a chance that upgrading from an older version of the app might have caused this.
I'm also getting this but from the search screen.
When the search screen loads if I click on a popular tag (e.g. php
) it'll often display Network error
.
I am logged into the app and don't have any drafts saved.
Hey @SpeedyLom, thanks for the detailed report and screenshot.
Just to make sure, do other parts of the app work? (question details, bookmarks, etc.) I remember you mentioned profiles also show "Network error" for you intermittently as well.
Also, does the issue persist if you log out?
A few things that I think could be related to this issue are:
The list of questions always loads as far as I have seen.
The next time it happens I'll try the other bits and come back to you.
I got some screenshots of the other screens when it happens. Once I logged out and logged back in again I was able to use the app as expected.
I'll let you know if it happens anymore now that I have refreshed my login.

@SpeedyLom Thanks so much for the screenshots and refreshing login. I suspect somehow the existing access token got invalidated and was causing errors in the request. I'll continue to look into how this could've happened. Again, really appreciate the reports!
I am still getting the issue since I refreshing the login last time 😔
@SpeedyLom I'm so sorry this keeps happening to you :disappointed:.
If you are willing, I'd really like to connect further so that we can work more closely on this issue. Feel free to shoot me an e-mail at tbwong3@gmail.com if you'd like, since debugging authentication issues can be sensitive. Unfortunately I'm not able to see much info on my side since error logs are a bit vague so the next best thing would be to install a debug build so you can inspect HTTP logs.
Ok good news! I encountered this error during development on one of my devices and it does not seem to be related to authentication at all. There's a bug somewhere that is causing a ton of requests to be made to the Stack Exchange API at once, and the server is responding with a 503 error. Will be looking into fixing this bug soon :+1:
@XPMai @SpeedyLom Thank you both once again for helping track down this issue! I just uploaded a new release to the Play Store and it is under review. Hopefully we'll see this fixed once it goes live. Edit: It's live!
Describe the bug When I open Stack app, I cannot browse anything because it says "Network error"
