The escape screen reopens the link in your own browser, where signing in works.

  1. On the Almost there... screen, press and hold the button.
  2. Tap Open Link to reopen the same address in Safari or Chrome.
  3. If the hold does nothing, select Or copy link manually, then paste the address into your own browser and carry on.

A social app opens links in a browser of its own that does not keep the cookie sign-in hands back, so the login goes round in a circle instead of failing outright. Petboost sends you here rather than into that loop. Once you are in a real browser, add Petboost to your home screen and the problem stops happening.
