The excitement about this new Leo Finance user interface has been going on since its launch few days back. If you have not heard about it, then you are probably the only one left. Below is the URL you can check that out:
The new User interface is something more intuitive, more appealing for short-form content (called threads), and more of the Everything App gateway. You can read about it below in the launch post below:
So getting into the main business of this post, we are encouraged to find and fix bugs - any glitch that would be a challenge to using this brand new UI. I discovered one glitch and how to go around it, which is why I decided to share with our friends here.
Immediately after the launch, I tried to log in from my mobile device. Of course before then, I had successfully logged in from my PC with no challenge. But trying to login from my mobile browser (Android device) was a challenge. After many unsuccessful attempts, I discovered that it was not my personal problem. Many others were having issues logging in through their mobile browser. It simply does not call up the Hive Keychain app when the log in button is clicked.
If you have the Hive Keychain app, you will discover it has a built-in browser. This browser makes it easy to login to the new UI from mobile. So I will demonstrate how to use it.
Important Note: Please make sure to add your posting key before attempting to login as that would be required. Then you can follow the steps below to login to the new UI from Hive Keychain browser.
Step 1: Launch the Hive Keychain mobile app. Click the three dots at top right to reveal a menu. From the menu, click browser. (You can add your posting key from Manage Keys link in the menu too)
Step 2: Enter the new UI address (https://alpha.leofinance.io/) in the address bar and hit enter. Hit the log In icon (found at the lower left side of the page) to reveal the Sign In page.
Enter your username and click the Log in button. Click the *Confirm Button which appears in a pop up to confirm. Check image below
Congratulations!!! You have logged in to the new UI from the Hive Keychain browser! You can start threading and making your posts!
This is a quick fix to the issue of not being able to login from a mobile browser. I am sure the team will work on this as time goes on. In the meantime, Android mobile users can use this quick fix to get around the issue of mobile logins!!!
Threads!!! Threads!! Threads!!!!
