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

    I had the same issue and the only workaround I found was to replace classic combo box with Modern combo box in the app

    It will need to be done each time the application is restarted.

    I have rolled back to this authoring version and app is now working as it should. What is the long term prognosis?

    RA-25100853-0   Thanks for your workaround but this causes more issues (which differ by device) rendering the app unusable unfortunately.

    Hello.
     
     
    "FYI, Microsoft Support acknowledged the bug, and created this work-around: Go into App Settings, and change the Authoring Version of PowerApps:

    I'm actually not sure which version is the good one. MS had me set it to the last one in the list, rather than the 'recommended' one, but today I"m back on a 'recommended' one. Perhaps this auto-updates with new releases, and I managed to skip the bad one. They did not provide any guidance on how the authoring version is set.

     

    If you are having the issue, try changing to an older one."


    I have used the version 3.24101.10 and it worked for me.

    This worked for me as a workaround - 
     
    Open Settings in Power Apps Studio
     
    Select Updates
     
    Select Preview
     
    Turn on - Optimize for Devices
     
    Save and Publish

    same here. Ipad comboboxes are buggy, works well on PC though.

    Several business applications are blocked because of this bug, well done Microsoft! Is there anyone here who can escalate the issue ?
