This link drove me nuts last night, until I stopped tapping the link in Jerboa and instead copy/pasted the link directly into Fennec web browser.
If this bug has been resolved in a newer version of Jerboa, well just let me know and I’ll make a point to update later.
What about other PDF links? Where does this appear to open in for example? Within Jerboa? Fennec? Some other pdf viewer interface?
Another approach, have you tried any other Lemmy apps? Voyager has a progressive web app if you don’t want to install something. Open that in Fennec. Does the original age verification link work there? What about my wonderland one above?
Try opening the links through voyager in your stock browser on both devices
This might seem trivial or a lot of work and that’s fine. But it you still wanna figure this out it will help me, and I don’t think anyone else is trying to figure this out right now.
Edit: I see you have already done some further digging that I missed. I am still curious what is going on with your device however. I didn’t mean to discredit your work @Binette@lemmy.ml
Oh, the Voyager link you provided works fine through Jerboa. Awesome 👍
The real answer is why do some links posted within Jerboa not actually work within Jerboa?
Some tell me to switch to another Lemmy app, which indeed is an option. But I wanna see Jerboa development improve as well…
If it it is indeed a Jerboa bug it would be a very niche case one. Possibly. Exclusive to older versions of Android.
Define older? I didn’t realize Android 11 was considered that old…
Historically, 3+ years, and even today 5+ Is pushing it.
Your first link works properly in Jerboa 👍
But it’s not jacking the system with an HTML to ask if you’re 18 or older either. That’s where things seem to mess up.
It works but what does it open in?
If you’re reading along with Alice’s adventures then go to your apps switcher, what app is showing as displaying wonderland?
Apps Switcher? What the fuck is that, and if it exists, where do I find it?
Edit: Back to the Play Store login prompt…
Recent apps? Idk, you may have a button or more likely a gesture, idk what you call it. One is home button, one is recent apps, and one is back button. Order may vary.
No gestures on my devices at all.
Yes, I do have Back, Home, and Recent App buttons on my tablet (and phone even), in that order no less.
None of those help with this situation though. Like, when I tap the link from justice.gov, I’m never presented with any option as to what app to open it with… ☹️
Fuck I dunno, and I don’t really expect you to pull a magic answer out of your ass either. But I really do thank you kindly for being helpful 👍
Right, but after you click, something opens, after that when you hit the recent apps button what app icon is shown?
That’s the entire point, it doesn’t present any menu of apps at all.
It just force feeds it through the last registered PDF app, no menu of optional apps at all.
