Just update to 1.8.1-q-20230207257879-dev-starlte and everything work perfectly
EDIT : Installation time (without the downloading phase) took like less than 3 min. Great job !!!
BTW, ccording to Geal concerning the webview (see under):
We’re aware of this. The issue with the the WebView is due to the fact that we had some dev team reorg, and that there is someone else in charge of the Browser build, and it takes some time.
It will be fixed in the coming weeks though.
Has the webview been updated for this version? I didn’t find anything about it in the realease note

I found that the stock Gallery app has a glitch. When open, it does not immediately showed the content of picture folders. It stayed blank for about 3~5 seconds then I got all images correctly displayed.
The stock Files app also has a glitch, some files only showed as Downloading…
I have no idea why. It stayed like that
Current solution: I have to use a different Gallery (simple Gallery app) and Files app (simple Files app).
Using a rooted Moto One 5G Ace with /e/OS v1.6
I looked over the change log for v1.8 and was unable to locate any references to the overlay issue. Can you tell me the overlay issue I reported here was addressed?
Update went smoothly and completed in 20 minutes. (Rebooted before updating, set screen to stay on & didn’t use until update complete.)
Very pleased to have seen no issues so far.
Just the ongoing minor annoyance that the upward swipe gesture still does not return Bliss launcher to home screen. First seen reported in v1.5 feedback.

Same Problem as with V1.6 and V1.7 - Wifi cuts off when screen is turned off.
Issue reported with possible work around and some debug information:
Well, on FP4, the gallery app latency appeared only on latest 1.8.1. Hopefully the issue is already opened:
Concerning the downloading .apk files, it seems that some apps generate “fake” .apk, especially Facebook, but also Aliexpress and some others.
I strongly advise you to delete them regularly. For instance, my wife didn’t cleared those files since she has her FP4 (October 2022), and had 15’514 files in her download folder (1,5 GB).
Thus, Files app was unable to display them. I had to connect the device to a PC and spent 1 hour to delete all those unwanted files. Though, this is not related to /e/OS, but to the app itself…

No crashes so far, but I feel like that the battery is draining very fast. Even in “Power saving mode”, just recognized a drop of 8% in less than 10 minutes of only casual using Signal and writing messages.
Ok apparently the gallery app has issue and some people were able to duplicate it. Hopefully it get sorted soon.
Regarding the downloading status for apk files, I dont think this should be an issue since I dont get it in version 15.1. And yes the issue is NOT with the OS, but with the app itself since if I use a different file app it got displayed correctly.

Form 1.7 e/os, the sms app crashes when selecting a message.
I tried to clear cache & storage but the bug is still here.
The update to 1.8 does not change the behavior.
