• Android device: Google Pixel 3a (Android 11)
• Reference Browser version: 8/4 Master

Notes

✔️ Seems to be working on OnePlus A3 (Android 6.0.1)

This should only happen on newer devices while the test should run as before on slightly older Android versions.

androidx.test.services.speakeasy.client.ToolConnection$ToolConnectionPostIcs.doCall(ToolConnection.java:193)
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Wrong number of arguments; expected 6, got 3

indicates that we probably need to update the androidx.test dependencies to a newer version.
