Public bug reported: This has been reliably reproduced on desktop and a phone running webbrowser-app 0.23+16.04.20160711-0ubuntu1 (and oxide 1.15.8-0ubuntu0.16.04.1).
Steps to reproduce: 1) wipe your session data (make a backup first if you care) by removing ~/.local/share/webbrowser-app/ 2) launch webbrowser-app 3) browse to https://mail.google.com 4) log in with an account that uses 2FA (I’m testing with a @canonical.com address) 5) read your e-mails 6) close the browser window 7) launch webbrowser-app again Expected result: you’re back to your inbox, logged in and ready to work Actual result: google prompts you for your e-mail address. Once entered, the login happens automatically, there is no need to do the 2FA dance again. ** Affects: webbrowser-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1605218 Title: Google account login using 2FA isn’t remembered across sessions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+bug/1605218/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
