BT headset (Beats Flex) is charged, connected and
in my ears.

Note: I have sent an email to iNaturalist Support about it
I am posting it here

so other users who get this
bug know that this is something that has been reported.

When this bug is fixed, please reply here to let other

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Sorry for the formatting and duplicate screenshot - something is wrong with the forum editor in Edge browser (Chromium-based). I cannot even fix the image-related problems as editing the post shows only the text, not the images.

I can replicate, I made an issue here: https://github.com/inaturalist/INaturalistIOS/issues/594
