I have a combobox in my application, when I expand it on the web or desktop, everything is fine but when I test it on my phone, the screen turns black. any ideas? I've already checked the database, even put a 2-item array, tested it in another application, reduced the size but nothing works

Show a screen shot so that people can easier understand what turning black means.

I also have this issue. I have fixed it temporarily by rolling back to authoring version 3.24102.10 from 3.24102.14.

To the other reply, the entire screen turns to black, you can longer see any controls and can't interact with anything.

Same problem happened in Power Apps version 3.24102.14

The screen literally turns black, so screenshots I take are just black squares.

I was able to return to the app list screen by swiping from the left edge of the screen to the right.

It worked when I reverted the Power Apps version to the previous 3.24101.10, saved it, and republished it. However, this may not be a fundamental solution.

I experienced same issue today!!!

Only clicking on classic comboboxes and dropdowns triggers this issue.
All other things are working.

Turns black means that the whole screen that is openend disappear.
The app seams to work in the background.

What i found out is:

App works in the browser and in the Powerapps App for Windows.
App dosen´t work in Powerapps App on IOS and Powerapps App on Android.

If i turn on the feature "Optimzie for mobile device like IOS ..." the dropdowns and comboboxes work.

This issue seams to happen with the release of Powerapps-App-Version 3.24102.14
3.24101.10 works fine.

Hi AM-23102125-0,

Quick question - Does this issue only occur when you click on the Combobox, the app works fine if you don't click on it?

Looks like its a problem with the Power Apps Mobile App release version not Power Apps release version.

I would suggest you spin up a new test app with just Combobox on it, open it on your phone and see if it results in black screen when you click on it.

I think its an issue with the app release which MS should address soon.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Nandit
