@acurrie is there a reason why the last link in your Morning Briefing posts never works in the HoFo app? The URL is wrong. Looks like this:
http://%22https//www.howardforums.co...ad.php/1927797

I have to edit it manually in the browser to make it work. Is it a bug in the app? It works fine on mobile web and full web versions of the forum.

I see what you mean... must be something the app is doing. That's certainly frustrating!

I wonder if the same actions in Tapatalk produce the same error, if that app is even still around...?

Yes, Tapatalk is still around. I just installed a free version and it's the same problem.

Ok, I'll send a bug report to Howard. One more thing, though: is this a recent problem, and if so can you recall when you noticed it? Thanks!

No, it's been like this for a while. At least a year, I think.

The version of Exynos chipset (1280) in A53 wasn't mentioned in the Google article. However it doesn't mean A53 is out of the woods.
