Works but incredibly annoying. Constantly running in the background and showing in notifications. It will randomly ding or vibrate to tell me it's running - I don't care, why are you telling me? I'm not using the app right now! Have to either force close or change notifications settings to block all notifications from it. Update the app and you're back to square one.

As of yesterday it's forcing me to have Chrome as my default browser or it fails to connect. On desktop it's opening two exactly same pages before finally connecting. If you decline opening the second page it just spins and never connects. The persistent notification is also a pain but not being able to use the app as I did two days ago is worse. Having to create an account in order to file a ticket is to me, just another way to get information. I would avoid this app until it's fixed.

1. Using Android 16+ One UI v8, Auth. doesn't use the default browser app, it uses Chrome and Chrome always attempts to use a security key which always not possible, Instead of offering the 2-step PW+ SMS option. and getting to that 2-step auth option requires unconventional steps. it's quite the hassle. 2. once a connection profile is setup changing the server region isn't possible, there is no menu of server regions available to select from. though that is possible using Windows DT app.
