I am finally able to login again, but now the cloudflare-purgatory blocks me from accessing the webpages via the app. Dedicated browser is fine tho.

@Robocopmax same here, today I was finally able to log in again, just to be meet with the cloudflare verify problem again, which lead to me having the 403 error in the first place. I cleared all browser data but still no luck. Maybe it's another DDOS or something?

Could be. But i rather suspect that the used browser somehow can't retain the verfication token.

I have found an functioning workaround in this discussion: /t/5428675/new-human-verification-fails-on-app?after=20

However the developer tools window needs to stay open the whole time. And for evry new session of the browser you need to repeat the process.

Update:

It suddenly started working again after not working for almost a month. When I tried logging in again today, it asked me to do my 2FA again and finally let me through.

I guess you can try resetting or changing your 2FA to trigger the prompt(?), but I didn't do that so I'm not sure what made it work.  

Hope this can help someone at least lol

Update On The Matter

As of today, it got fixed on its own after not working for a long while now. Coming back to read the replies and then checking the app, now it finally lets me log in and actually use it unlike before without me doing anything extra. I just placed my info as normal and usual and got in. I don't know what the problem was or if it'll happen again but keep an eye on it regardless. So far it seems to be working just fine on my end but I don't know for how long that'll be though.

I'll update this reply post if something occurs with an edit note if I have something new to bring up. I still hope that they look into though and soon because I'm not the only one who was affected by this issue that shouldn't happen if we can log in just fine to the browser version.

Do you also have the authentication problem after being able to log in again, or does everything in-App work as it should?

It seems to work just fine now, I haven't encountered any problems so far and I've even gone out of the app and back in without issues. I will, however, update any errors into the parent post the moment I encounter any for the sake of keeping things tidy.

Someone on the other thread posted this:

Which worked for me

New app update should fix it, though it may be necessary to fully reinstall the app to get the update 

Yup. I needed to download the setup again but then it installed and since then the Cloudflare check is still a bit wonky but atleast I don't have to open the dev-tools every 30 seconds.
