Connecting with Android app doesn't work

bug
1

Since the last update of the app I can’t connect to sites anymore. It looks like the app does not get the access token. I can see it in my user preferences, but the app still shows the “Connect” button after pressing “Authorize”.

I can use the sites without any problems within Chrome itself, so it’s just a problem with the app.

Also, notice that it now shows “Discourse - Unknown” instead of “Discourse - <Device Name>” when it asks for authorization.

Tested on Android 7.0 and Android 8.1 with Discourse app 1.2.0 and Chrome 63.

Ah, that seems to be it. I’m always adding meta.discourse.org which leads to the described problem. It works when I try to add https://meta.discourse.org.
