I am having an interesting issue. I published a new version of my app. When I start it up, it just sits at a blank screen. When I use it through the thunkable app, it opens and works fine. I tried removing any screen open and screen start and republished to be sure there was no issue in my code and it still just sits blank. Anyone ever heard of anything like this before?

Sure. There’s issue with your blocks typically.
Can you add a blank screen to be screen 1? Does that help.
What elements or invisible components are you using on the screen that won’t load.
