Description

Checks
  • I have read the FAQ section, searched the open issues, and still think this is a new bug.
Describe the bug you encountered:

Lenovo Idea Tab (TB336FU), Android 15, ZUI 17

sftp: SEND PUBLIC KEY...

Fails to open the "Share" screen. Thus I cannot copy the public key to put in "authorized keys".

It's a newish model of Android tablet, released October 2025, but not obscure (it's sold at John Lewis in the UK).

Describe what you expected to happen:

No response

What version of Keepass2Android are you using?

v1.14-r4 from the Play Store

Research direction

Start by reproducing the “SEND PUBLIC KEY...” action on a Lenovo Idea Tab running Android 15 with Keepass2Android v1.14-r4, then trace the code path that should open Android’s Share screen. Compare the behavior with a device where sharing works; done means the public key can be sent or copied through the Share screen.
