Description

Environment:

  • OS: iOS v18.2.1
  • IceCubesApp version: v1.11.2

Description

When the connection is laggy or lost, an error message appears taking the whole screen thus hiding the already loaded timeline.

At that point there is no way to get back at the timeline easily.

The screenshot is in French, it says:

An error has occurred
An error occurred while loading the posts, please try again.
Using the button does not work as the network is still laggy at that point.

The ideal scenario would be to notify this connectivity error but not that way.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the issue on iOS 18.2.1 with IceCubesApp v1.11.2 during a laggy or lost connection, then locate the loading-error screen; done means the already loaded timeline remains accessible without relying on a retry while the network is unavailable.
