tapatalk: help - unable to authenticate / login

[Ford Prefect]

...there had beed several updates to the tapatalk app (android) recently....I am unable to login/authenticate since then (tried User Name and email. Password is known and picked/copied from a keypass, so no typos there.

 

This all started just after the new method/procedure with 2FA auth for the forum had been introduced/enforced. 

See here: 

 

 

Maybe a coincidence or not...I can not login via tapatalk since then.

Anyone in the same boat or just me?

 

any advice is greatly appreciated.

 

TIA,

ford.

Unfortunately, it appears to be a problem on Tapatalk's end:

Thanks for confirming, what I already feared to be the cause of the problems.

Still, I see recent posts with tapatalk in their signature...for some folks, the (old) credentials are still lasting somehow?

 

Tapatalk wasn't great but for using on a phone, it was good enough...more minimalistic than the Look&Feel of the Forum in a mobile Browser.

I guess there are no real alternatives to it? - Yes, I did place the Browser based "Bookmark" on my Start-Screen....but not really satisfied, as I am using a phone with the smallest display/size the company would give me
