I don't know how to describe my problem, but I try...

# compose

I don't know how to describe my problem, but I try it: When my App opens, it checks for a new version and if there's no new version it continues with the main app which also gets some data from an api. Now this should be a pretty easy task and the things being downloaded are very small. But sometimes with my wifi (and worse with only mobile data). My app takes very long to load. I don't know whats causing this. I mean the rendering is independent of the network thing it should give me something but its just a white screen

Is this a compose thing, an android thing, a desktop thing, a general thing?

android thing

Then this is not the right channel, and not the right Slack

[Jan]

I mean I'm using jetpack compose

on android

You can add some logging in that network task when it completes, as well as in your main UI when it starts and finishes loading, and see if these two things are indeed as independent as you aim them to be.

I get this in the console but don't know what it means:

I don't know if that says something but I'm getting my data from an HTTP api (not HTTPS)

ANR usually means that you're blocking the main thread for too long. So probably your network request is not running asynchronously, but rather in the main thread
