Hi,
I'm using the InVision Android app to run the prototype. I find that when I add hotspots in fixed footers, none of them work.
To illustrate: in the following screen, the hotspot inside the fixed footer on the button that says "click me" never works on Android (i.e. it doesn't take me to the next screen). On the browser it all works fine. Does anybody have a solution for this?

Hi Tobias
Sorry to hear that you are having an issue with the InVision prototyping tool.
Can I ask, what Android device are you using to showcase the prototype on? What is the Android OS version on the device in question?
Also, have you tried your prototype on another Android devices? Does it have the same issue?
Regards,
Hi!
It's a Pixel 2 running Android 9 - I've tried it on a Pixel 2 with Android 8, but it has the same issue.

Tobi
Thanks for providing those details, Tobias! Can you also please provide the following information so that we can take a closer look at this?:
1. What version of the InVision Android app are you running?
2. Does this issue happen with all prototypes, or just this one in particular?
3. Could you provide a screenshot showing the differences between the hotspot in the fixed footer on the mobile app vs. the browser?
I look forward to hearing back from you with these details, and hope to get you some answers soon. I also noticed that you have a ticket opened with our Support team describing a similar issue. They should be able to help you get to the bottom of this as well. I have notified your Support agent of your post here in Community, and they are currently awaiting your response.
Look forward to hearing from you,

Hi,
Any update on this? I’m having the same problem (only on Android). Any hotspots within a fixed footer are misaligned to the screen.
I’ve tried this with a Pixel 3 and Nexus 5X, both running latest Android and Invision app.
I also tested with hotspots created with Craft and on the web - same problem.

Any links added to fixed footer are not displayed in Android App. Works in web.

Q: What version number of the InVision Android mobile app are you running?
A: Not 100% sure where to find this, but I'm guessing it's build 2.6.8.178
Q: Could you provide a screenshot showing an affected screen on your browser?
A: My browser is not affected. But here is a screen shot from the edit mode if that's what you're after?
Q: What version of mobile OS (e.g. Android 9.0) are you on?
A: Android v9
Q: Does this issue happen with all prototypes, or just this one in particular?
A: This is my only prototype. It seems to work ok for the bottom nav tabs, which are template links. But not for these ones.
Q: Could you provide a screenshot showing the differences between the fixed header on the mobile app and the browser?
A: They look the same. The footer fixes in place. But the links don't work. And when you tap away from a link to show where the links should be, the ones for the fixed footer do not flash. Perhaps they're behind the fixed footer?
Q: Could you send a screenshot showing the fixed header for an affected screen in Build mode?
A: I don't have any fixed headers right now
Q: Could you uninstall/reinstall the app to see if the issue with the hotspots persists?
A: I will come back to you on this one in a follow up comment
Q: What version of Craft Manager are you running?
A: I'm not. I'm just using the designs that have been added by another user (design team)
Q: What version of the Craft Sync + Prototype plugin are you running?
A: I'm not. I'm just using the designs that have been added by another user (design team)
The boxes in the screen shot above are just redacting some information. They are not part of the screen shot. So the blue hotspot is not under any design elements.

Hi,
I'm having the same issue and it's highly frustrating that the Android version of InVision is not given more priority. The hotspot seems to be behind the fixed footer and this hampers any prototyping we can demo.
Build no. 2.7.2.182-574
2. Could you provide a screenshot showing an affected screen on your browser?
Browser works fine, it's the Android app that's the issue.
3. What version of mobile OS (e.g. Android 9.0) are you on?
Android 9 (Pixel 3A XL/One plus 6)
4. Does this issue happen with all prototypes, or just this one in particular?
All prototypes with a fixed footer and a hotspot
5. Could you uninstall/reinstall the app to see if the issue with the hotspots persists?
No change after reinstalling
6. What version of Craft Manager are you running?
Version 1.0.85
7. What version of the Craft Sync + Prototype plugin are you running?
Not sure.
Other prototype tools like Marvel don't have this problem with the same flow. Please get this fixed as soon as possible.
Thanks for providing all of that information, Tejas! I apologize for the frustration that this issue must be causing for you.
I have opened a ticket for you with our Support team so that they can take a closer look. Please keep an eye out for an email from one of our Support agents soon.
Hi Shaina,
I have having the same problem also on the Android app.
I am on Android 9, One plus 6. I have the latest of everything, both craft and the mobile app.
Please help fix as it is messing with user tests.
Thank you

Having the same issue here. Any progress on this? I submitted my own ticket. It's doing the same thing on multiple Android devices, running different versions of the OS.
Hi Dean,
Thanks for reaching out on this thread. I understand how frustrating it is to wait for a fix to an issue. The Engineering team is aware of the issue but we prioritize issues based on the scope and impact of the issue. For that reason, we don’t have an immediate fix available. However, this is an issue that I will notify our Community Moderator to raise in the next Product meeting.
It looks like you’re currently in touch with one of our Support team members who will keep you updated on the resolution to this issue.
Thanks for bearing with us,
Camille
Hello,
I have the same issue here. Any progress on this?
PS : All last updates are updated (sketch, craft, android, invision app,....) and I have a google pixel (and the last update of android).
Arnaud
Hey Arnaud,
Oh no! I'm really sorry you've ran into these issues as well.
To ensure we're all on the same page, I'd like to gather a couple more details from you:
Once I have these details, we will be better suited to dive deeper into this investigation together.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out, we're here to help any way we can.
Looking forward to hearing back!
All the best,
Mike
Hello Mike,
Yes, the problem is only on the android invision app. Look the place of the "blue hint hotspot" when I click on the invision prototype with my "google pixel 1".
Yes that work on inVision Cloud webapp (no issue on that, just on android invision app).
Do you have any idea of what is the problem?
Hi Arnaud,
Thanks for following up with that information! I'm glad to hear that the hotspots are working correctly in the InVision Cloud webapp.
However, it does sound like you're encountering a known issue that our Engineering team is aware of. To confirm, can you please provide some additional information before passing this along to our support team?:
Look forward to hearing back,
Shaina
