Cannot establish connection to M10-d with Fotos.

I've just acquired an M10-d and having downloaded latest Fotos for Android, I've spent some frustrating hours trying to get it to work. This is what happens:

Switch camera to Wifi. Wait for green light to stop flashing. Start Fotos. Swipe down to connect. Select Leica M10-d (which has been successfully added with QR code). Get message 'Connecting to camera Wifi' followed by 'Connecting to camera', then 'Leica fotos has stopped'. Subsequent attempts to start Fotos result in immediate message 'Leica Fotos keeps stopping'.

I'd be grateful for any suggestions!

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

Did you pair the camera with the QR code which is on the body under the bottom plate?

Yes - the app lists the M10-d complete with serial number, and Wifi on my phone shows the signal from the camera.

I've discovered that it works with another Android phone so it's a relief to find that the camera itself seems OK, but frustrating that I can't get it to work with my own phone. I wonder if it could be fixed by changing some setting or other? I certainly don't want to have to get another phone because of this.

Clear the list of WiFi connections (assuming that is possible on Android)
