Linking vehicle via OBD in 7.0.2 (5764) broken

No OBD menu in ABRP - Therefore, no possibility to connect a compatible dongle.

Hello, everyone.
I am an ABRP Premium subscriber and I use this app regularly with my R5 ETech.
Until now, I have been using live OTA data via Enode to get my battery charge in the app.
However, I purchased an OBD dongle so that I could get more information and, above all, more responsiveness on the car data in ABRP.
But I am facing a very mysterious problem.
I no longer have the menu for connecting a dongle in the "Connections" menu of the app.
I only have Live Data (OTA) and below that "Advanced Settings" with a submenu called "OBD PID Editor."
Nothing else.
As a result, I can't connect my dongle (OBDLink CX) to the app.
Could someone please explain what is happening?

I should point out that:
- The dongle is one of those recommended by ABRP
- I restarted the app
- I restarted my phone (iPhone 17 Pro Max)
- I uninstalled and reinstalled the application

If I run a PID test in the OBD PID editor, ABRP first asks me to connect to a Dongle.
In this case, it manages to do so and I can run my test, which shows that the Dongle is working.
However, once the test is complete, it does not remain connected to ABRP, and I am back to square one, unable to perform the test.

Attached is a screenshot of my connection menu in ABRP and a screenshot of the connection to the Dongle, as part of a PID test.

Where does this happen?
iOS
ABRP version number (found at bottom of settings menu)
7.0.2 (5764)
