hey @GianlucaMinoprio, thanks for the PR! this looks to have some regression on desktop due to it calling connect() again once the route has changed. we would need an isMobile check wrapped around this for this logic to work

example:

if(isMobile) {
   connect({ connector });
} else {
  context.setRoute(routes.CONNECT);
}

Because connect is being called twice in this case, I recommend moving the logic into a useEffectof ConnectWithInjector like this:

    if (wallet?.connector.id !== 'familyAccountsProvider') {
      connectTimeout = setTimeout(runConnect, 600);
    }

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9a4e89b1-1b67-44f9-a3e2-af15c284408a

For the familyAccountsProvider, I believe the connection should remain tied to the button click. This ensures consistent behavior across the Apple ecosystem and helps avoid the pop-up being blocked. On both iOS and desktop Safari, pop-ups triggered outside of a direct user interaction (like a button click) are blocked, resulting in a failed connection attempt. It’s frustrating UX when a smooth pop-up could have worked.

Right now, the only issue is that I’m unable to detect the error message that rejects the connection inside ConnectWithinjector. Other than that, everything is working well.

Pushed the update @lochie, if you’re able to find a way to detect when the connection is canceled, that would be awesome. Let me know if I can help debug!

[GianlucaMinoprio]

I've added a small change so that the direct connect from the button only work for Family Account:

                if (connector.id === 'familyAccountsProvider') {
                  connect({ connector: connector });
                }

In the useConnect() of Connectors we should add the management of the User rejected request and sync with the UI using the context.
