Description

BUG IN HTML PREVIEW FUNCTIONALITY

Concerns:

Nextcloud client app version 4.0.6 on iPad and iOS.

Summary:

After I updated my Nextcloud client on my iPad and iPhone to version 4.0.6, the Nextcloud client will no longer preview HTML when I click on the HTML-file in the app’s file explorer.

Description:

I discovered this bug, because I was testing and previewing my own HTML and CSS files at a frequent interval when suddenly the iPhone was no longer working – but the iPad was.

Then I discovered that my Nextcloud client app recently was auto-updated to version 4.0.6 — while my iPad Nextcloud client was at version 4.0.5, and working fine!

After manually updating my iPad Nextcloud client to version 4.0.6, also this app stopped previewing HTML.

My iPad and iPhone run the latest Apple OS.

Best regards, and thanks for a GREAT product!

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Nextcloud iOS client 4.0.6 on an iPhone or iPad with an HTML file, then compare the behavior with version 4.0.5. Done means HTML files preview normally again on the affected devices and the regression is covered by an appropriate test if the project provides one.
