Are you using the internal or external IP?
If internal, have you defined your local SSID (network name) inside the internal URL screen config?

There is a change in the app that it will only use internal IP if the network name if defined.

@bgoncal
Not sure I understand "use network name in the local url screen". I use local ip only AFIK:

I think this is not a nice change. When I'm not on my local SSID, I'm on my VPN. So I have at least two networks where the local IP had to be used. I never use an external ip

[bgoncal]

I mean in app settings.
If you want to use the same URL externally just set it as external URL as well.

This change is to prevent people exposing their token in public wifi without encryption since most users use http at home.

Thanks for explaining. Will give it a try tomorrow👌

@bgoncal
I checked, network is configured correct. Same url used for external and SSID's for internal url are set.
That seems not the cause.
Latest version stutters while scrolling dashboards and drains the battery of my phone

Thanks for the update, I'll debug during this week (I received other similar reports)

[bgoncal]

Can you try out the new beta?

[erkr]

I will do that. (Didn’t understand the database throttling). First impression is at least snappy again 👌

[bgoncal]

That is not directly related to your issue, some users were having lags on the UI and depending on their entities how often they update the database update sync that we have in the app was flooded

Thanks I will report back in a few hours on the battery drain part 👌
