Hi @Diego, thanks! When will this fix be available? I recompiled my APK but my images are still having the same problem.

#52

well i just want user who are facing the issue to check few things

  1. do problem occur when internet is on
  2. do you have ads in your app?
#53

In my case no ads, and Internet is on.
If I shut off internet completely than images NEVER load beyond the sing in screen (screen1).

#54

In my case, the app needs to be connected to internet, and the images takes time to load. There is no ads in my app. Hope to get the fix available soon.

#55

The current beta server is offline again?

#56

See my post in this thread:

#57

So as I see it, it’s not a bug, it’s a server issue. Quite clearly.

#58

As I said, my test app does not require any internet functionality.

Thanks! It’s great that a solution was found, but what is important to us is that it be available to all of us as soon as possible as it’s a pretty ugly bug and makes user experience real bad.

It was mentioned that it would be available in the next release. Releases are every few months


Don’t really know the logistics and issues you guys face by rolling out a release right after an other (last weeks). But if it’s gonna be months we should change all our images to arrangement till then. Not ideal though.

#67

I have a trick to short out this problem. Use any horizontal or vertical component and set the image. Instead of image component.

#68

Did you see my post (option 1.):

To work around this issue (bug) (until there is a fix), you have 2 options :

  1. Place the image(s) in an arrangement as a background image
  2. disconnect WiFi (using Taifun’s WiFi extension: App Inventor Extensions: WiFi | Pura Vida Apps)

I had the same problem starting few days ago until today when I cleared the cache of Google Play Services and Google Play Store.
I don’t know why, but after that I can instantly load images from my device and in less than two seconds from Firebase Storage.

Settings -> App info -> All apps -> Google Play Services -> Storage -> Clear cache
