android: start IPNService foreground before browser opens in login#747
Merged
Conversation
When the user taps on the log in button, the browser opens, and the app is backgrounded without a foreground service running. This can lead to network access restriction, causing the control client register request to fail with "software caused connection abort" / "context deadline exceeded". This fix: -Starts IPNService as a foreground service before the browser opens wat the start of login Updates tailscale/tailscale#18304 Signed-off-by: kari-ts <kari@tailscale.com>
