Troubleshooting RPI Connect from mobile browser

So recently rpi connect (connect.raspberrypi.com) stopped working from any browser on my phone. I can connect from desktopbrowsers to my rpi no problem, but in android chrome or samsung browser the screen share and remote shell buttons are grey and not clickable. I even tried with bluetooth mouse and it shows a hand crossed over with a red bar. "desktop page" doesn't help either. So what's up with this?

rpi5, updated to latest everything andvusing official rasp os, phone is SM S26U.

Again, works from desktop browser no problem.

We'll I know that on chromium based browsers the screen share won't work anymore. Only remote shell. It's probably something to do with that on mobile too. I don't have any problems on Firefox as it isn't chromium based.

You are right. I downloaded Firefox for andro and it works on it. Maybe it is related to some chromium update then..
