This is a hard one. We can't easily read native crashes from that Motorola device since their system image is not public. I assume you can't reproduce this either, but if possible can you try using WorkManager 2.0.0 or 1.0.1-rc01? This would help track down the possible changes that might have introduced this issue. Thanks!

We actually did reproduce it, the current store version of Pocket Casts has WorkManager 2.0.0 and this bug if you want to try and test something. I will try 1.0.1-rc01 and report back.

Is there a difference between 1.0.1 and 2.0.1? We tried 2.0.1 and it was crashing, if there is a difference I can try 1.0.1 but I thought they were the same?

Can you also describe how you trigger the bug and which devices manifest the problem? Is it just running the app? Is it doing something specific?
Description
Version used: 1.1.0
Devices/Android versions reproduced on: Emulator API 19
Activity.reportFullyDrawn() was introduced in API 19 but has a bug at that API level requiring the system permission UPDATE_DEVICE_STATS, which is not available to non-system apps. FragmentActivity could override the method and do nothing on API 19 and below. This avoids running into the unfixable bug, and also avoids having to do API-specific code wrapping for API 18 and below where the method does not exist.
