BBO app on Android opens browser window automatically closing login session

When I open BBO Android app, login and go to table, often times a banner appears with spam to update whatsapp. Without any interaction a browser window opens, which pushes BBO in the background and closes the login session.

This is very annoying, since it drops me from the table at a random moment in the game.

Any help? Is this a known spam banner? Is it on purpose?

Sorry about the disrupting ad. We have very limited control over ads displayed on mobile but I think we can block it if you send us the URL (look in the address bar at the top of the browser window, and copy what's written there). Please email me (diana@bridgebase.com) the link to this ad and we'll do our best to remove it.

Hi,

Having the same problem over here.

The popup opens a webpage to http://downland.what.../NLN/index.html (yes, really downland :) )

That link is indeed the one opened in the browser.
The problem seems to occur with other ads as well. Not sure what the cause is.

We think we managed to block that URL. Please let us know if you continue to experience problems.

Mmm, unfortunately the problem is back!
It looks like the banner is randomly chosen for a certain period at a time.
I was able to play all day yesterday without problems, but now I ghat the same behavior all the time.

Problem still persists. Now cannot play a single game before being thrown out. Very annoying!

Sorry about that. We've hid ads for you and pieransel. Please log in to play or watch bridge. If you like to play with robots, you'll be able to use robots for free until the problem is solved.
