Description

1. Environment

  • Device: OnePlus 7 Pro
  • OS: Android 13
  • APP: ReadYou-0.9.8-84156d2.apk (also tried with newer builds from Actions)

2. Describe the bug

  1. Add a BazQux account (Fever API) using either https://bazqux.com/ or http://bazqux.com/ as Server URL (source)
  2. The account is added without any error
  3. Sync once from "All" tab: all feeds correctly appear
  4. Try to sync again from any feed or from Unread/Starred tab: "Syncing..." message appears briefly under the account name but no article is pulled at all (despite having some unread/starred articles of course).

I tried to set my password again as suggested in the blog post mentioned above but it doesn't make any difference.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with a BazQux Fever API account using the listed Android app versions, first syncing from All and then from Unread or Starred. Trace the account's subsequent sync behavior and verify that later syncs retrieve the expected unread or starred articles rather than only succeeding on the initial sync.
