Bug Report: App silently switches from Public sharing to Secure sharing on relaunch

Prerequisites

Note: Reporting against production release v3.2.6, not a dev build. Developer prerequisite items below are N/A.

• Using yarn
• Using an up-to-date master branch
• Using latest version of devtools.
• For issue in production release, add devtools output of DEBUG_PROD=true yarn build && yarn start

Expected Behavior

The sharing mode selected by the user (Public or Secure) should persist across app restarts. If the app needs to change modes, the user should be notified and given the option to confirm. I was also unable to find the option to change this setting in the app Settings.

Current Behavior

After closing and relaunching Deskreen, the app silently switches from Public sharing (local network) to Secure sharing with no notification to the user. There is no option in Settings to switch back to Public sharing. The only way I can restore Public sharing mode is to clear all app data and sign in again — and this must be repeated every time the app is launched.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Launch Deskreen Pro and set sharing mode to Public sharing (local network).
2. Note no six-digit code at end of URL
3. Close the app.
4. Relaunch Deskreen.
5. Observe that the app has silently switched to Secure sharing mode. (Note six-digit code at end of URL)
6. Navigate to Settings — no option to switch back to Public sharing is available.

Possible Solution (Not obligatory)

The selected sharing mode should be persisted in app settings and restored on launch. If a fallback to Secure sharing is intentional under certain conditions, the user should be informed via a dialog explaining why the switch occurred.

Context

This issue forces users who need Public sharing mode to clear all app data before every session, which also requires signing in again each time. (See also issue #309, Public sharing mode not working...)
