Authentication doesn't seem to work correctly on Android

How do I…

Trying to authenticate a user by Opening an Authentication Window

What is the expected result

Once the user has authenticated, the user should be able to return to the app as an authenticated user.

What is the actual result

  1. Authentication window opens.
  2. User authenticates.
  3. Window changes to 'Ready to Play. You can close this window and go back to the game"
  4. If the window is closed, the player is returned to the app but the authentication banner appears, unsolicited, saying the user is not authenticated.
  5. Note that if the “Click to here to log in” option from the banner is used, the same process is runs, but this time the player is logged in.

If the process is changed to the following, the authentication works.

  1. Authentication window opens.
  2. User authenticates.
  3. Window changes to 'Ready to Play. You can close this window and go back to the game"
  4. Instead of closing the window, it is minimised. Then the “Logging in…” window is revealed. If this is then closed, but the authentication window is left open, the player is correctly authenticated.
  5. The authentication window can then be closed.

I can’t seem to move this to bug category, but here is a bit more information.

If I use the authentication banner and then log in from there, it seems to work.
