Authentication Succesful But Nothing Happens

Open Time2Veto opened this issue 3 years ago • 40 comments

So I can put in the ClientID and the SecretID and then it'll bring me to the proper authorize access page BUT then it gets stuck on successful with nothing changing in the app. Sits on the submit page where I keep opening the allow access page. I am having this issue on Android and Windows.

Expected behavior Should Log me in.

Desktop:

  • OS: Windows 10
  • Version: Latest

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

  • Device: Pixel 6 Pro
  • OS: Android
  • Version: Lastest

Close the app. In android, Clear Storage of the app from the app info & try again

KRTirtho avatar Apr 07 '22 03:04 KRTirtho

It doesn't change the outcome. Just gets stuck at this page and doesn't sign me in. Uploading Screenshot_20220406-235355.png…

The screenshot redirects to the issue. Provide correctly

Sorry trying to. Mobile is hating me right now. [Here] (https://imgur.com/a/QbPlanc) I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. But that link should go to.the imgur post of the page.

Time2Veto avatar Apr 07 '22 05:04 Time2Veto

Again wrong URL

KRTirtho avatar Apr 07 '22 05:04 KRTirtho

I'm not sure what exactly I'm doing wrong about it? It's the right if you copy and paste it. Just clicking the hyperlink redirects to this page for some reason.

Time2Veto avatar Apr 07 '22 05:04 Time2Veto

Can provide the app screenshot?

KRTirtho avatar Apr 07 '22 05:04 KRTirtho

Sure. So yeah.

  1. Enter in info hit submit
  2. Get the success page I showed you https://imgur.com/a/QbPlanc
  3. Nothing happens until I manually go back to app
  4. Nothing changes on app. Like I never hit submit here

Time2Veto avatar Apr 07 '22 05:04 Time2Veto

Try hitting back & see if a red logout button appears or if its still showing a green connect with Spotify button

KRTirtho avatar Apr 07 '22 05:04 KRTirtho

That's what I try. Still green and no login at all.

Time2Veto avatar Apr 07 '22 05:04 Time2Veto

Did you try uninstalling & reinstalling the app

KRTirtho avatar Apr 07 '22 06:04 KRTirtho

Just tried and no changes. Still doesn't work.

Time2Veto avatar Apr 07 '22 06:04 Time2Veto

So just an update. Been trying daily and still nothing. Maybe its my phone? Or account?

Time2Veto avatar Apr 09 '22 06:04 Time2Veto

It could be a special case for your phone or account. Why not try with a new account?

KRTirtho avatar Apr 09 '22 08:04 KRTirtho

I'd imagine it must be my account. Just shame if it is.

Time2Veto avatar Apr 09 '22 09:04 Time2Veto

It's my account. So I have no idea why but my original account can't sign in. Wonderful. Any ideas or just lost cause? Only cuz it's recommend is better catered

Time2Veto avatar Apr 09 '22 09:04 Time2Veto

Are you using Spotify premium?

KRTirtho avatar Apr 09 '22 09:04 KRTirtho

Would that cause an issue? I actually am cuz I paid for it thinking your app would block ads lol I know it does now but at the time.

Time2Veto avatar Apr 09 '22 16:04 Time2Veto

Actually, I didn't test the app with premium accounts so it could be a reason causing error in the app

KRTirtho avatar Apr 09 '22 16:04 KRTirtho

Well I can try it out when it runs out next month

Time2Veto avatar Apr 09 '22 16:04 Time2Veto

Yep, that would be helpful

KRTirtho avatar Apr 09 '22 16:04 KRTirtho

I've tried both macos and android 11 with premium account, works fine for me

karniv00l avatar Apr 11 '22 08:04 karniv00l

So I guess its an edge case for @Time2Veto's account

KRTirtho avatar Apr 11 '22 09:04 KRTirtho

The only thing I can think of is this being an issue with it being like a hulu/spotify student bundle that ran out? Like this is from years ago so maybe somethings different about it. Last idea. Not a big deal though

Time2Veto avatar Apr 11 '22 23:04 Time2Veto

Authentications successful on my end too but no redirection to app. Not premium . Changed browser still same issue. I believe its because its old account or is it location issue?

Gottarocket avatar May 01 '22 04:05 Gottarocket

Guys the problem is, after when we give Spotify permission to Spotube, the browser tries to go to a URL named "localhost:4304/auth/spotify/callback /...." which on PC (either in Windows or Linux) does redirect to Spotube App but when it comes to mobile (Android), it doesn't.

I wonder, has anyone done this on their mobile successfully! How does the mobile browser redirect "the successful token" to application installed on the phone? This logic needs some fixing to do.

Edit: We need some browser that CAN redirect localhost url authentication to the app properly. OR we need to introduce the new logic in the app.

New logic:

  1. Spotube token which can be used to sync user whether he is on Linux, windows, or android.
  2. Need Spotube client ID and Spotube secret token that can be copy-pasted into multiple devices to kind of "sign-in to Spotube ID".

Does this make sense? @karniv00l

I have the same problem too.

@Gottarocket "Authentication Successful" means you're authenticated with your Spotify Account in Spotube. The browser won't redirect to the app even if the authentication is successful. You've to manually go to the app & check if you're logged in. If everything went fine you'll see a Red "Log Out" button on the Settings Page of Spotube
