Hi I don’t think I am going to make a search bar anymore but now I have another problem, every time I use the log in in my app it freezes and I can’t see the next slides. There’s an image below. ![Screenshot 2020-06-22 at 09.33.14](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/8/5/85c9e25388e10d38c2a9ccd4a90542bf77c1846f.jpeg) ---
