Hi Everyone,

I’m having a very strange issue. I’ve fully built out my app and am testing deployment to both app stores. I have no issues when deploying locally or from the iOS app store. My problem though is that when I download the app from the Google Play Store, it will occasionally navigate to a wierd view where it shows the root directory of the device. This is not a view I have created and I cannot reliable repeat the issue. Has anyone seen this?
