How can I fix not being able to login to VR Forums App?

Asked: Oct 14 2016 | 1:51 pm EDT 1381 Views 11 Answers View Best Answer

I managed to lock myself out of my account when I used the forum app on Android.

Is there some trick to logging in since I'm a Mobile Nations member and usually use Google login?

Please try resetting your password from the website, not through the app. Then you should be able to log in to the app with the updated password.

There should be a forgot password link at the sign in page, use that.

Hi, sometimes it happens to me, be sure that your credentials are using a character like a space or something in your google account

I mean, if you are trying to login and you made your account with your Google credentials sometimes in Google you have your real name "John Smith" so that's the name even with the space (don't care about capitals) you need to use to sign up in the Android app.

I found it odd that my handle was listed as taken on one screen and incorrect on the other. I know the password was correct because I signed in on the website.

I signed up for an AC account long before I attached my name to my Google account, so my original handle should have been valid.

That's what I ended up doing. It worked for me. I've actually been using the app for a few days now and haven't had any more issues.

Hope you don't mind I converted this in to a Q&A so others with the same issue can also find help.

Nope, no problem at all.
