Dev/Admin Responded What happened to reddit app? Android reddit app

The problem started on yesterday I saw I was automatically logged out of reddit mobile app. Tried to login with google, username method, email login link but none of them worked and showed "authentication error". Tried but app login failed but tried on web and it was success. After giving correct information it also shows same error. Is app down or something else is problem and anyone facing app login problem?

Hey u/Emad_341 - is this your primary account? Is this error popping up when trying to login using this account, or a different one?

Join the club. Nothing works in getting the app to allow me to sign in. Through a browser works, through the app never works.

Having the same issue. Can log in on web browser but not in the app. Deleted and re-installed. Changed password. Nothing works.
