Updating Monero.com wallet to 1.0.9 erased all user settings including wallet file

Open MoneroArbo opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

It just happened today when the update was finally pushed to my device from Google Play Store. OS is Android 11. Curiously, the same did NOT happen when I updated Cake Wallet to 4.4.4. If there's any other info or logs I can look for I'm happy to do that. This could also be an OS issue I suppose, but it's the first time I recall seeing an app have it's user data automatically cleared after an update.

I didn't lose any funds, so no worries there, but less careful users might.

@MoneroArbo can you provide all the device info you can, either here or to [email protected]? We're unable to reproduce.

I tried to reproduce but I don't think I can install old versions in Google Play and if I install the apk directly it breaks updating through Google Play.

Friends and such seem to have updated with no issues so I'm going to go ahead and close this
