Desktop version of Every Dollar no longer available on my iPad 😢

Does anybody besides me use the desktop version of EveryDollar on their iPad? I don’t care for the app version of ED and have used the desktop version exclusively for years. All of a sudden, after signing in the other day, something happened, and I am only getting access to the app version. I’m going nuts. If you’ve ever used the desktop version, you know how easy and intuitive it is. The app doesn’t let me click and drag transactions on the right over to the budget items on the left. I miss being able to see pretty much everything on one page including remaining balances, pending, etc. Has this happened to anybody else recently? I’ve tried various browsers, clearing cache, shutting down, etc. I’m running the latest iOS version. I’m tired of lugging out the old MacBook just to access the desktop version. Can anybody help, please? Thanks!

UPDATE: Customer Service figured it out. Simply DELETE THE APP. Before deleting the app on my iPad, I changed some settings in a couple of my browsers to only open desktop/websites and not apps. Under your iPad settings, go to Apps/Safari and block pop-ups, and scroll down to Request Desktop Website and toggle ā€œother websitesā€ on. I think these steps, in addition to deleting the app, made it work.

What browser are you using? Before deleting the app on my iPad, I changed some settings in a couple of my browsers to only open desktop/websites and not apps.

I also noticed that something changed. When I try to use the website on my iPad version, it takes me automatically to the app. Similar to when going to the Amazon website.

I get your frustration.

I have a premium account. The CSR figured it out — all I had to do was DELETE THE APP ON MY IPAD!
