The issue was me not having a screen lock passcode defined.
Not sure if this is the best way to approach this, a settings page for editing user information (including name and root password) would be useful, that one could then opt out for the screenlock.
@R66F root, you'd probably need to use a custom waydroid gsi with SU binaries. from there just install one of the many root modules/frameworks that let you spoof app id's
I got to the point where is asks for a password but won't accept my password. Word of caution: don't change your password from command line if you've enabled passcode - when you phone locks it only gives you a numpad to enter your password, not a keyboard.
A shame it cant be moved, i'm left handed, so hold the phone with my right hand, which makes the left side launcher uncomfortable to use, going to add it as a suggestioni think, im sure im not the only leftie using UT!
@TobsEnd I had similar issue with FP2 some time ago. Couldn't figure why, happened after update, persisted after channel change (stable, rc) and next OTA updates didn't fix the video playback. I couldn't play videos for several months.
The video issues were fixed after complete UBports reinstall (with wipe) using the installer.
I hope it will fix your issues too.

For the record, the behavior you described is not a bug. When an app is uninstalled the users data and settings are not automatically removed. Just as they are not on desktop Ubuntu. These typically live in your home folder. Having your data and settings intact when reinstalling an app after having removed it is a feature.
@b3 you can file an issue as feature request here : https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues
It can be quite a big work if we have to handle different backup format. Is there anything standard ?
@PizzaLovingNerd There is no technical reason that anbox could not work on the PinePhone, however it is still an extremely experimental feature even on the devices where it is currently available, and work has been going toward more important things for the PinePhone.
Also, I think anbox on UT has no arm64 support yet. So, it would take someone contributing on making it work to get it to the point where it could be installed and run.
