Description

When I was initializing a chat with my friend, the network connection really sucked and the app was stuck with a endless loading icon. I restarted the app and then I found 15 rooms between my friend and me.

Thus...is there a way to forbid Riot from creating duplicated rooms?

System iOS 10.3.2
App Version 0.4.2

Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Reproduce room initialization on iOS 10.3.2 with app version 0.4.2 under a poor network connection, then trace the room-creation flow; done means retrying or restarting does not create duplicate rooms.
