When I access the HG site from my android with chrome, the login pops up again and again so quickly that I cannot complete typing the user/password.  Then when I swithc to another tab, the popup happens again and again.  Anyone else having this issue?

I never see a login dialog when I connect to HG locally or over the internet.  I probably have the password disabled somehow.  For Android, I just use the client on the Play store.

It has happened to me ever since I started using it in January. When the problem happens, you need to close the browser tab hosting HG and open it back up from scratch. You will then get a single prompt.

For me, this problem is triggered when I leave the tab open, then come back to it the next day after using my phone for other things. If I have time, I may try some troubleshooting to see how it can be resolved on the HG side. Essentially, we want to show a single login prompt, and halt ALL http requests until login occurs. I think this may need to be handled on the client side in javascript, as it may have something to do with queued up http requests from the chrome browser as it goes to background.

FYI: I am using latest Chrome build on my Samsung Galaxy S4.

I am using latest chrome on S4 as well.  I use the app too, but it doesn't show notifications or all the data for sensors.  I am guilty of leaving many tabs open.  I will try to close the HG tab and see if that eliminates the popup issue.  Thanks.

Is this still happening in recent HG builds?  It's frustrating to use HG on phone or ipad. 

Problems I have regularly:
-android app - all widgets disappear even though app menus function, have to kill app and start again.  Sometimes go to settings then back out will refresh, but lately have to kill it.  Also widgets don't show all data especially for custom sensors.
-android chrome - login/password popup repeats, difficult to cancel all the popups and close the browser tab
-ipad chrome - login popup repeats, not as bad as android for me.  Analyze/charts tend to crash browser (I think only site I have ever noticed crash chrome)
-ipad safari- I don't typically use safari so I forget on the popup issue, but it does crash browser regularly when I have tested it

WindowsPC/Chrome is the only reliable HG device/browser for me :-(
