Browser force auto inserting incorrect info in search bar

Post by tarquin »

Running Nougat v7.0 and Adblock browser for Android v1.1.1.20160202111258.

When I type in the search bar, the browser is auto inserting a bookmarked web address in the search bar. E.g. I have "www.nationalpost.con" bookmarked. When I type the letter n to search for "nougat", the browser auto inserts "www.nationalpost.con" into the search bar forcing me to remove the unwanted text (web address) after typing my search term. If I remove it before, it only repeats the problem when I type the letter n again. It should let me type my full test without auto inserting what is not wanted like it did when running Marshmallow (Android v6). Annoying.

Same. I've had to give up on the browser and move to Opera... Which does a pretty good job of blocking ads itself.

Browser seems to have been broken by nougat and it doesn't look like anyone is home at adblock to fix it.
