Can not connect to ESP32 via softAP. There is no connection display or menu, you have to click through the options for uploading -> find .bin (does not remember locations/last files) -> says no connection. I have not found a different way to check connection status or any way to debug it. Given that I directly connected to the device and nothing else, I am not sure why/how it fails. Tryed this since ArduinoOTA needs a proper router. It messes with the keyboard, swiping stops working in the app.

Hi, Leo. Thanks for your feedback. There could be multiple reasons on the issue. Please follow https://www.arduinodroid.app/p/troubleshooting.html#checklist to exclude possible reasons one-by-one. Can you provide the details about keyboard and swiping, please?

Really impressed with ArduinoDroid. I can write, edit, compile, and upload sketches directly from my phone without needing a laptop. It works well with Arduino Uno, Arduino Mega, Arduino Nano, and ESP8266. OTG uploading is smooth and reliable. The interface is simple and easy to use, which makes quick testing and project work very convenient. Please keep updating the app regularly and ensure compatibility with all Android versions and different phone models.

The app was great and easy to use on phone to upload to boards without needing to carry around a laptop. But since the most recent update it can no longer show any files on my device. It just shows empty folders even though the code is in there. I tried to use Google drive and it just shows a blank page.

Hi,Brett.Ggle is doing tremendous efforts to separate the app data. Google approved DRIVE_FILE GDrive permission only meaning the app can read/write only it's own data.UPD: Feel free to update to 7.2.0 with full fs storage permission request. Can you confirm it's working for you now?

What’s new

* Fixed: reusing the USB device/connection after failed uploading
* Added support for labelless USB-to-TTL chips that are detected as FTDI (vid=0x0403, pid=0x6001)
