I’m passing two strings between two activities and for some reason, it crashes when I try to accept the string. I feel like, I’ve missed something important out, but can’t find any code, that I could of missed out. Google yielded, little to no results and I’m really annoyed as this seems to be a pretty basic task.
Any help, would be gratefully appreciated 🙂
