Downgrading version to 4.8.11.2 - issue happen with fairly lower cases. Gonna try out next time to figure out what if it will be even less (or completely gone) on *.1 or *.0.

ver: 4.8.11.5 (install from Google play)
device: google pixel 10 (16 android)

A similar problem arose today, possibly after an automatic update from the app store.

Reinstalling the app helps while the app is open for the first time, but after opening it again, the UI starts to break.

UPD: Stopping the app and clearing the cache helps for a while, but the problem returns later.

On my device, the problem has two stages:

  • first is when the text is visible, but graphical artifacts appear, such as the dotted circle on the connect button;
  • second is when the text disappears and becomes blurry(screenshot above shows the second stage).
