Cannot login despite correct credentials

I keep getting a 0017 code saying that my username or password are incorrect. I have changed my password in case that was the problem, but it’s still not working. Works fine on my TV, but cannot login to the app. Please help!!

Any extensions or blockers installed? Have you attempted using incognito mode?

I have had the app for about a year and it has automatically opened and I’ve been able to use it since I initially installed it. All of a sudden the other day it asked me to login and then won’t accept my login. That’s why I had changed my password, thinking I had maybe forgotten it, but it won’t allow me to login still. No blockers on.

Thanks. Have you deleted the stored provider, rebooted, then tried again? Many have experienced issues with the apple Single Sign-On being different.

Has anything changed on your iPad, like a software update?
