Cannot check checkboxes in the captive portal browser

REPRODUCIBILITY (% or how often): 100% for me
BUILD ID = OS VERSION (Settings > About product): 4.1.0.24
HARDWARE: X10 II
UI LANGUAGE: Dutch (NL_nl)
REGRESSION: (compared to previous public release: Yes, No, ?): I do not know, I haven’t connected to a network with a captive portal when the captive portal browser feature was introduced in 4.0.

DESCRIPTION:

Checkboxes are impossible to hit in the captive portal browser

PRECONDITIONS:

You should be able to connect to a network with a captive portal that has a checkbox on the login page.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Connect to a WiFi network with a captive portal that has a checkbox on the captive portal page
  2. Click on the notification in the events view to login on the network
  3. Try to hit a checkbox (in most captive portals I’ve seen, there is a checkbox that needs to be checked to agree to the terms of service)

EXPECTED RESULT:

The checkbox gets checked

ACTUAL RESULT:

The checkbox does not get checked, even when trying to tap several times.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

Known portals that didn’t work for me:

Workaround: copy and paste the url to which the captive portal leads you in the default SailfishOS browser and complete the login process there. You seem to be able to check the checkboxes there just fine.

For me it also seems to be solved with the Dutch trains.

Just one small hint for non EA users: Webcat does the job at least in most hotels.
