What was the Problem?
Love audiobookshelf! Love the app. Thanks for all your work on this project.
Recently the Android app on my phone started displaying "Invalid Cover" on all items in my library. The covers are there, and everything looks just fine when I access my server through a web browser. I've made no recent changes to settings (and in fact have barely done anything other than happily listen to podcasts since I set it up!)
Other than the missing covers, all other metadata appears to be present and everything is working just fine!
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
Open the app.
See that no cover images are present on any items.
What was Expected?
Cover images display properly as before.
Phone Model
Pixel 6
Phone OS
Android 15, stock
Audiobookshelf App Version
Android App - 0.9.78
Installation Source
Google Play Store
Additional Notes
Have tried the usual things, server side refresh of data. App side refresh of data. Deleting data+cash in the app and reloading. Uninstalling the app and re-installing.
Weirdly when I uninstall the app, it seems to remember my user information and settings when I reinstall even after deleting all the data settings beforehand.
Happy to provide any more information you need if it's helpful!

App version 0.9.78 requires at least server version 2.17.0.
https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/releases/tag/v0.9.78-beta
Best is also to see the release page for app updates. They often state breaking changes
@advplyr Maybe we could add a server version question to the issue template

I assume you have an outdated server version:
From the Discord:
App version 0.9.78 (released a few days ago) requires at least 2.17.0 for images to load.

Ahhh yes of course. Sorry about that, a quick apt update/upgrade and it's working fine. Thanks for taking the time to respond!
