Android Widget Issues with Syncing Stories

I love the android widget and it’s the main way I interface with Newsblur but have been running into an issue where the widget will hang on the loading screen. I know its not an issue with the app because when I open it, my feeds will be there, working just fine.

Anyone else running into this problem?

For context - this is android 16 running on a google pixel 6a

Any ideas @andrei?

@gaucheGoose Does it recover by itself or does it stay stuck loading?

If it doesn’t load, sometimes if I open up the proper app the stories then show up in the widget when I go back to my home screen.

Separate, probably unrelated issue — when it does work for some reason the icons and images attached to the stories will load incorrectly, mismatched and in the wrong places. Sharing this screenshot to see if it kind of gets the point across

@gaucheGoose Is the Yahoo icon the issue in this screenshot? If so could you check in the app if that is the thumbnail for the same story?

Rolling out a potential fix under 13.12.1

The two ‘NFL News’ headlines should have Yahoo logos, but they have Al Jazeera logos lol. Also on the NYT headline for some reason the thumbnail from a different story is where their logo should be.

Testing a few tweaks on my end for a few days and if it looks good I’ll push another update soon.
