Hi @Ayan-10 @sivaraam,
I have a change request in my PR and I was planning to take a look at it soon.
I believe it solves this and other similar issues in the app as I described in previous comments, so maybe it would be good to give it a try 😄
@marcosliberal Looks like you’ve done significant work on this issue. Feel free to open a PR, we’ll take a look. And yeah, next time make sure to ask before you start working 🙂
