No longer working on Android 17
 
DisplayLink no longer works after updating to Android 17. The first prompt appears asking for permission for the app to access the device, but it never proceeds to the second, screen share prompt.

The issue is related to the fact that Android 17 has significantly tightened its security and privacy policies regarding screen capture (MediaProjection API). Because of this, the system blocks the critical second request to display the screen for apps that have not yet been optimized for the new OS version. To fix this, you need to go to the Android system settings, open the 'Apps' section, find DisplayLink Presenter there, and manually grant it all permissions, including 'Display over other apps' and 'Screen recording' (if such an option is available). Also, be sure to check the app store for the latest DisplayLink update, as the developers need to release a patch adapted to the new Android 17 security requirements.
