What's with the login?

Xevioso — Mon, 02 Dec 2019 17:48:42 GMT

I know I'm being picky but I don't care. I'm already logged in on the Stadia app. So why is it that every time I launch the community from the app, I have to log in to the community separately? I get having to log in from a PC. But if I launch from the app I shouldn't have to log in separately. Can you guys fix that?

Opening Stadia Community from the app signs me in automatically. However, that is likely because the app opens a Chrome browser window, which is linked to my Google account. If you can set your phone up a similar way, it should work.

I should note that it does not show me as signed in until I click the account icon in the upper right. It does not request credentials, it simply signs me in and the icon changes to my customized one.

Yes, I agree, that's annoying. I would consider that having to click on the actual Google account email, is a method of logging in, even if password entry isn't required. Seems as if it times out too after being logged in for certain amount of time. Why!? It's not a secure site of sorts with private information, ha...

Better yet, this community should be integrated with the app. Now that would be the logical step to take. One app to rule them all

@Sornin Chrome is always logged in for me in my phone, so that's not working for me.

@MeneerGroot ... Haha! I wish. It seems like integrating the community within the app would be a natural step, but with the way things have gone so far it seems like a huge task for them. Hopefully something they add to their to-do list though.
