Android Intermittent/flickering black screen

I get an intermittent/random black screen when doing pretty much anything with the GX browser on Android. S23 Ultra, everything up to date. I have been unable to find a solution online as I cant find anyone experiencing the same issue. The one bit of advice I did find said to turn off hardware acceleration, however, that option seems to be missing. Sometimes it happens rapidly as I'm scrolling, others it happens after a second or two. It does it with pretty much any web page. Switching the option to desktop site works sometimes but not always. Usually happens on login/registration where after hitting submit the next page wont display. I have to scroll or repeatedly click to get it to show but sometimes I hit another button and get redirected because I can't see where I'm clicking.
I use GX on my windows laptop with zero issues. I love this browser but this issue is becoming too much to deal with. I really don't want to have to go back to chrome or migrate to a different browser.
Any and all help is appreciated.

@ArcRokkit have you tried deleting and re downloading gx? Or fully powering your android off and powering back on again?

@ArcRokkit, @Ray-Finkle - this kind of problems with web sites could mean something is wrong with webview (rendering engine). You can check what webview version phone is using by checking user agent (it will be shown like Chrome/131.0.6778.260). You can also try to clear Android System WebView data in Apps section in system settings.
