Can't get past "Stuck? Click to go Home screen"

[ioogithub]

I can't use the application at all. When I start I am shown a screen:

/ (inaccessible)

Stuck? Click to go Home

Clicking does nothing. I can't navigate away from this screen.

Version: v2.9.0 from fdroid System: LineageOS 17 (Android 10)

Hey. Thanks for the report. I haven't been actively developing this app lately. May be a while before you see a fix for this. I've noticed a couple reported from people using LineageOS. This problem is probably bigger than it appears.

@ScreamingHawk I think labels for this bug should be updated.

I solve this problem by compile this app from master code. The f-droid version have this problem in my device xiaoxin pad TB-j606f.

Android 10 switched to Scoped Storage which prevents apps from having broad access to the filesystem. Therefore, Slideshow will likely need to transition to using the system file picker to select the folder that the media is located in to support Android 10+. As a workaround on LineageOS devices, enabling root in the system developer settings and enable "Use Device Root" in Slideshow settings might fix the problem, however I don't have a rooted Android 10 device to test this on.

Edit: Nevermind I just tested it on Android 12 and it works fine.

Same problem here. It works for me on Android 12, and Android 8, but not Android 10.
