A 502 Bad Gateway error is an HTTP status code that indicates a server received an invalid response from another server in the communication chain. This error can occur when a server acting as a gateway or proxy receives an invalid response from an upstream server.

This is a network issue at your end, from what I can tell. Are you using a VPN, or have any other strange quirks in your network connection ?

25

No the internet is good in condition,

work, both with companion app and with compiled app.

Maybe a Samsung specific issue, Samsung use a different TTS engine.

Tested with the same blocks as Tim, on a Xiaomi with HyperOS 1.5/Android 14. Works on both companion and the compiled app.
