This happens to me with Tor Browser for Android alpha downloaded from our
website in LineageOS. My system is in Spanish and Tor Browser detects the
locale in the settings at least.
Steps to reproduce:
- Make sure you have Tor Browser closed
- Click on a link on your email or similar to trigger the 'open with Tor
Browser always, only once'.
- Select Tor Browser. You get the pretty purple screen with the 'Conecta'
button.
- Click Connect. The Tor Browser homepage appears.
Your link is forgotten!
- Go back to your email, and click again on the link.
- Select Tor Browser
- The link is opened in Tor Browser.
What should happen instead:
- Tor Browser should open the first time with the link, after connecting,
instead of the homepage. It seems it forgets the link during the
connection process.
