Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/878

Within the Android App (Version see below): when I am trying to set the default base URL in the settings menu, the "ok" option turns grey after entering the first character - and does not come back again, not even after entering the "original" ntfy URL. So there is no chance to set the base initially, the only option is to "abort" ("Abbrechen" in German).

Entering a dedicated server while consuming a (new) theme directly works, however - so there is no urgency in that to me. I am merely wondering, why I can't set a base URL...

Here is the log of the App, not Sure uf hat helps:

This is a log of the ntfy Android app. The log shows up to 1,000 entries.

What are you trying to enter? You have to enter a full URL, e.g. https://example.com (without spaces around it)

Oh, wow, that's embarrassing. The server here must be a https, only with http it does not work. Problem solved, thanks :-)

Hi #binwiederhier, I got it: my keyboard is consequently transfering the first letter into uppercase.
Once the string starts with "Http" instead of "http" the OK never will let me through.

So "Http://ntfy.sh" does not work, "http://ntfy.sh" does.

Haven't seen this one before :-) I've included two Screenshots ;-)
