Topic: Device connected, GUI config received, but not receiving variables

Android 13, ESP8266-01 module, programmed with Arduino IDE.
ESP8266 program is running, display on local OLED is as expected. I know the module is connecting to WiFi and the Internet because it echoes the IP it gets from DHCP on the screen, and it connects to NTP and displays the correct time. remotexy.com/en/account/tokens/ shows "Connected" for that token.
When I try to open the device in RemoteXY Android app I get GUI configuration received (sometimes on first try, sometimes on 2nd) but then Read timeout errors for receiving variables.
Another ESP8266-01 module with a different program is working perfectly on the same app on the same phone.
Any ideas?

Re: Device connected, GUI config received, but not receiving variables

Most likely your code has some of execution delay that does not allow you to call the RemoteXY_handler() often enough so that the data receiving buffer does not overflow. To check it, run the clean code that you received from the Editor without adding any other code.
