I'm attempting to address this bug, but when I try to reproduce it on my companion with version 2.7.0, it presents another issue: the program crashes and throws an exception "java.lang.RuntimeException: no such class: com.google.appinventor.components.runtime.LinearProgress". I'm unsure if this behavior was expected, but here's the full error:

Hi @SimoneSantin it is possible the companion you are using does not have that component baked in. Was this a downloaded APK or are you building your onw? If you build from sources, that error might go away and you should be able to see the original behaviour. Also note that this affects the ucr branch, so you might have to build from there.

Thanks for the help. I downloaded the APK from the forum, and I also tried to build it from the ucr branch, but it still gives me the same error
