Configure link to define custom homeserver/identity server automatically from `https://app.element.io/mobile_guide/` does not work (`mobile.element.io`)
See original GitHub issueSteps to reproduce
- Have Element Android installed and signed out
- Visit https://app.element.io/mobile_guide/
- Click the Configure button
- Notice how it just redirects to https://mobile.element.io/?hs_url=https%3A%2F%2Fmatrix-client.matrix.org%2F&is_url=https%3A%2F%2Fvector.im%2F instead of being handled by the Android app
With Element Android installed on the sign in screen.
Press configure | Just redirects me to mobile.element.io and pressing “Try again” does nothing |
---|---|
Outcome
What did you expect?
The Android app opens with the custom homeserver and identity server filled in
What happened instead?
Just redirects to https://mobile.element.io/?hs_url=https%3A%2F%2Fmatrix-client.matrix.org%2F&is_url=https%3A%2F%2Fvector.im%2F which tells me to update my app (which is already the latest) and try again which also does nothing.
