Hi!

here ([Login/Sign In - Glide Library](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/reference/security-and-per-user-data/controlling-who-can-access-your-app#sign-in)) they say

“Once your users have logged in, that device will remember them and they shouldn’t have to sign in again” (category; Limit access by email)

But, they won’t remember and I have to get pins and type them for verifying every time I try to use the app.

Usually my device remember my password etc in other website, so I don’t think it’s because of my setting at the devices.  
I’ve tried both on my iPhone and Mac.

Is it only me?  
Thanks!!

The first thing I would be checking is that I have User Profiles correctly setup and configured.

Thank you Darren,

Yes, User Profiles are correctly setup and configured, I think…!

Did you clear the cache between logins?

And have you “added to home screen” rather than running in browser?

Perhaps show us a screenshot so we can help confirm that for you?  
It probably isn’t the cause, but best to eliminate that as a possibility.

Thank you V88\_Google,

Thank you again Darren,  
This is the screen shot. Hope this shows the exact information you want?  
It’s connected to the sheet by email address, I think.

So you have paid to be on a Pro Private plan, or is this a trial app?

</div>

Yes, that looks fine. One more thing - you mentioned that you are using the allowed email list feature. Is the allowed email list also your Contacts sheet, or do you use a different sheet? (check what is configured under Privacy settings)

No, that’s fine. It doesn’t really matter which sheet, as long as you have one defined.

At this point, I think my advice would be to contact Glide Support ([support@glideapps.com](mailto:support@glideapps.com)) and give them a [Support Code](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/etc/account/support-codes) for your app.

Just one other thing - any cookie / content blocker running on the device? Does the same thing happen on another device? Actually that’s two things!

It will happen any time a user clears their browser cache or history. If Glide ever integrates publishing to native then that issue will go away. Until then…

Thank you @V88 , @noobly_channel

No cookie / content blocker running on the devices.  
But, somehow… don’t know what but something happened and now I can keep using the website without sign in even after I close the web.

But, one thing I hope to Glide is that make it without a pin, even after “sign out”. I think it’s more natural to make it once we verify users’ email addresses by pins, then they can sign in with only their email address. Maybe I have to make original sign in system with a password by myself for now…

Anyway, thanks a lot to all!
