SUMMARY
Today when notified by Motorola of availability I upgraded to android 16 on my Motorola edge 60 fusion. On android 15 KDE 1.34 (Albert Vaca Cintora) worked fine. My old Moto G 5g plus with android 11 works fine too. But now on android 16 it cannot see any of my linux mint 21 boxes or other android phones - says no devices. Connecting manually by ip says ping failed, not found. Enablling MDNS or bluetooth does not help. Do you not support android 16? 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install KDE 1.34 on Motorola edge 60 fusion with android 16
2. try to connect to another device
3. cry

OBSERVED RESULT

KDE Connect on android 16 cannot see any other devices on my network and can't be seen by them

EXPECTED RESULT

Connection :)
