This browser or app might not be secure / **login issues**

[Soossie]

I'm not able to log in to my google account because the login screen prompts that this browser isn't secure. Is this known?

Could it be a regional issue? I tried to run it as an administrator as well but same issue.

ye thanks to google they're actively preventing 3rd party apps to sign in with old browsers or invalid browsers.

For now you'll have to just press "try again" or reload the sign in page which should resolve it

Thanks, that worked!

For me this doesn't solve the problem.

This is a security issue and it is fine for them to do so. There are other third party apps that work properly.

I'm still getting this issue. Can't you surely just update the browser you use (which would in theory also be more secure as Google says)? Thanks.

I don't understand either. It's more of a bot prevention thing I think. Had to retry four times. What browser is the app using under the hood if not Chromium, Firefox..?
