Cannot stay logged in when using Google Fi mobile provider #405

Closed focuspulling closed 1 year ago

focuspulling commented 1 year ago

Simply put, whereas this desktop app would stay logged in with every reboot using any other carrier, as soon as I switched to Google Fi, and proceeded through the Get Started option for that, the app only stays logged in with each startup, then requires authentication again. Any way around this?

Someone else that uses Google Fi will have to chime in. I personally can't use or test the fi feature.

Thanks Kyle

Running on macOS Monterey with Google Fi as my provider and not facing this issue. @focuspulling what OS are you seeing the issue with?

Sorry that I should have thought to update this thread, but eventually upon logging out and back in, it started keeping me logged in between reboots. Tentatively seems resolved, thanks.

@OrangeDrangon This is actually an issue possibly. I can confirm with my Google Fi account on one machine, and my parent's Google Fi account on another machine. Google seems to block the app, stating "your browser or app may not be secure". Eventually after trying like 5 times, it can let you in, but I'm not sure for how long. It seems the app is being detected somehow.

I'm on Windows 11 22H2.

This was after we were logged in already and had been for a while without issue. It just booted us out randomly one day at different times (we aren't on the same network.)
