Oh, okay. The bug I was having also appears in the (recycler view) apps,
like Facebook. Thanks for letting users see stuff like that, too. Another
problem I'm having which may be brltty related, but may be a problem with
the app, is that I cannot activate some buttons in the BARD Mobile app,
like previous or next navigation setting, but play/stop works fine.
