I expected that I can edit the page, but I cannot. App displays error:
Unable to duplicate on enwiki with android app on a protected page (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=UTC%E2%88%9211:00&action=history). @Patriccck can you log out and back in to your mobile app and retest? Can you verify that you can edit protected pages via the mobile web and or standard web? Can you verify you can edit non-protected pages via the android app?
@Patriccck asked me before filling this task if I can reproduce, and I was able to, albeit I haven't tried with a sysop account (Wikipedia app doesn't let me to login with WebAuthn used at my primary account). My testing was done with my alt account. The steps I've performed are:
After @Xaosflux's comment, I've tried the same, except I promoted the account to full sysop and, surprisingly, it worked. Is it possible the mobile app checks for group membership rather than having the permission?
In both cases, I've logged in _after_ I promoted the account.
For the record, @Patriccck (a cswiki sysop) reported to me privately he was able to edit after logging out/in.
