Ah. No PlayStore in my phone. F-droid only - maybe that will be a hint.

If you want to build it yourself, it’s quite simple. There are installation instructions here: https://github.com/samuelclay/NewsBlur/blob/master/clients/android/NewsBlur/BUILDING.md

And the only dependencies are vendored, so you don’t have to do any work to get it running.

I install the app from F-Droid, and I had the same issue.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the app “fixed” this, since the latest version available on F-Droid is now 4.7.1, which appears not to crash.

Thanks for update!
Good Luck!

New 4.8.0 arrived at F-Droid and works well.
Cheers!

After upgrading to 4.8.1b2 (F-Droid build), the app crashes as soon as I launch it. Same behaviour in the previous version. Once again, the uninstall-reinstall workaround seems to work.

Please keep working together with the F-Droid team, it’d be great to avoid such issues in the future.

Just upgraded via F-Droid and I experienced no issues with upgrade and running the app.
