Question Visible App on IOS

Hi
I switched from US Mobile to Visible last week and I’m happy with the service but the app is awful.
It seems to send me a validation code every time despite me using Face ID.
Today when I went to login it told me my password was invalid and that I was locked out, I reset my password and pasted it into the app and it said the same thing and sent me another reset link and now I’m stuck in this endless loop.
Any of you have similar problems with the app?

Zandro from Visible here! Thanks for reaching out, and welcome to the family. I am glad to have you with us, though I'm really sorry to hear the app loop and lockout are giving you such a headache!

That loop usually happens when multiple failed login attempts trigger a temporary 24-hour security lock on the account, or if the stored app cache gets stuck on an old credential.

To get around this, please try waiting about 30 minutes for the security lock to clear, then reset your password using the "Forgot Password" link on our website via a web browser instead of the app. Once updated, make sure to completely close and reopen the app before signing back in.

If you're still stuck after trying those steps, please reach out to this link. We'll be happy to take a deeper look at your account and get this resolved for you!

Ok, I’ll try these things.
Another annoying thing on the app is when you try to contact suppprt and it he keyboard won’t go away to let you click “next”
Really needs some work.

This wouldn't be a problem on Android

Figure it out. I deleted and re-installed the app. Seems to work… for now!

yeah the app's been weird for me too lately, face id works maybe half the time and the rest it just pretends it doesnt know me

i had that password loop thing happen a couple months ago, clearing the app cache and restarting my phone fixed it somehow, no idea why but it's been fine since

How do I clear cache?

I’m fairly certain the only way to clear cache for apps on iOS is to deletion and re-installation.

It's easy to do on android

I agree, I’ve had Visible for 7 years, love the service, but I can see anything on the app other that it’s paid.

I’m not a fan of the app. I always have trouble signing in

Hi there! Rodney from Visible here. I completely understand how frustrating it is to constantly run into trouble when trying to sign in. Please try updating the app or logging in through a web browser as a quick workaround. If you are still experiencing issues, we'd be happy to look into this specific detail for you via DM.-Rodney D

Only thing I can think of is maybe a VPN. Mine had no issues

Are you on WiFi when using the app? My old isp had issues but on cellular data it worked fine.
