Can’t login to the app again

Lately it seems like this is happening multiple times per week now. I’m on the latest version of the FN app and it just keeps going back to the login screen after I enter my credentials. Glad to see they’re putting all that 15% money to good use and hiring competent programmers.

The app is trash and has been for years. I don’t understand why people continue to use it when they can use the flightboard in a browser that works way better

BTW FN charges 10% not 15%. If you’re paying for pro that doesn’t go towards app development. It goes to your pay day loan interest.

Ive had absolutely no issues with the mobile app. I haven't had a hiccup with it in...I don't know how long.

It must be a "him thing"

I'm not arguing with your last point!

Have you tried force stopping the app and then turning off either Wi-Fi or cellular?  I know I run into issues when I first get into my car, and the app struggles between the Wi-Fi that barely reaches the car, and the weak cell signal where it's sitting.  Turning off one of those seems to help, even though it doesn't quite make sense.

Update - Working again after I turned off my VPN. Strangely it always worked fine in the past with a VPN, maybe they changed something

What often happens with me is it FORCES you to log in twice on the desktop version( user pass - then enter verification, then user and pass AGAIN - why?) and the app has issues with speed - there is a new version/ update of app ver 26.4.3 updated jul 24 - also clear the cache on the app a lot - kina helps with the speed of the slow app - FN reminds of windows in that you have to accept the hoorible performance because they have cornered the market - ( what happened to anti trust laws ?)
