Is anyone else on this site having trouble using their iPhone?

**Beast 71** · 06-09-2014, 18:04

I keep getting logged out while using this site, since the up grade, as well as other glitchy things. Is it my phone or the site? Has anyone else been effected by this and more importantly, does anyone have a solution? I have an iPhone 4s.

Make sure you check the box to the right of the password field before you click the log in button. You might want to try tapatalk on the app store. You may find it to be faster than Safari on your phone.

+1 on Tapatalk. I have an iPhone 4s and a 5 among others. Works great.

I should have said that I have the box checked, it'll do it while I go to different pages and knock me off of the new posts page, because if it doesn't know who I am, so it doesn't know what's new to me. I don't use safari, I use google chrome, could that be a problem?

If it's of any help, I haven't used my phone a lot to browse since the update, but just logged on, navigated to many pages including New Posts, navigated away from HF, came back and had no problems staying signed in with Chrome on an Android.

I just checked Chrome on my iPad to browse HF (it has been months) and I was still logged in. So to answer your question, no I don't think Chrome is the problem. How is your cellular connection? If it's a weak signal or it keeps switching between 3G and 4G service the IP address assigned to your phone will change. When this happens the forum software may invalidate your session as a security measure and you'll be forced to log in again.

Try logging in from this form and make sure to check the Remember Me checkbox. Please let me know if it works.

I tried the link you posted but I haven't had much time to browse the site but, so far so good. I was using my wifi and all my other devices work as expected (even Netflix worked, which is the canary in the coal mine for slow or glitchy wifi or internet) so, it wasn't a wifi or a 3G/4G problem. Thanks for the help, I'll let you know if it doesn't behave itself.

Have not had any trouble. You might try resetting your phone. Hold the top button and home button till it goes off. This will cure a lot of problems.
