It seems that it is not possible to log into your Google account using EO browser anymore.

After entering your username and password, you now get an error indicating "You are trying to sign in from a browser or app that doesn't allow us to keep your account secure".

I've confirmed this with the latest version of EO browser (using TabbedBrowser.exe). A number of our clients have reported this over the past few weeks so it's not just limited to my account.

Is there anything that can be done about this?

Hi,

We have confirmed this to be a problem. It appears that Google is trying to intentionally blocking "embedder" applications. So there may not be much we can do about this. We will investigate further on this issue and reply here again if we can find a workaround.

Thanks

Louis

Hi,

It appears that Google has changed something and we no longer have any issue log into google account through EO.WebBrowser. Can you check it on your end?

Thanks!
Louis
