Twitter Investigating Bug Causing Unexpected Logouts on iOS 15

[Westside guy]

If you're going to use Twitter, just do it through the web browser. All using the app accomplishes is giving Twitter extra telemetry on you.

Good. Maybe while logged out people can reflect on how toxic social media is to society and delete their accounts.

“Oh your on Twitter? Oh no I’m far to smug and superior to use that“. Yeh, far to much of that.

Is this bad?

Surely being logged out of Twitter is a good thing?

Best thing Twitter have ever done.

Very frustrating if you have to sign in every now and then. Hopefully will be resolved soon.

Seems like Apple did it. Let's give credit where it's due.

It's the same thing on a web browser. Unless you use a browser that prevents those trackers and cookies. (e.g. Brave)

That doesn’t sound like a bug, it sounds like a benefit…

Well said, well said.
Now if the same benefit could be permanent and spread to Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok, and the others, society would be a better place.

Just did a google search because this log out thing has been perplexing me - I have the issue on my iPad Pro and iPhone 13 Pro since I updated the app last and I definitely on the latest iOS/iPadOS

I permanently logged out of Twitter ages ago , dreadful place full of horrible people

When I first signed up I thought, what a wonderful idea. I looked forward to hearing off the cuff remarks from actors I enjoyed watching while I was growing up, such as Mark Hamill. Now I wish they would all shut the hell up. ?

Guys I'm getting a THERES NOTHING TO SEE HERE YET message on the twitter app whenever I click an email link to a tweet. Is anyone else getting this?

I've signed out and back in. Deletee and reinstalled the app, but error persists.

Any help on what I should do please?

 

[jaykay007]

I’m not getting logged out. But for the last couple of days( (maybe more?), when I touch a link to Twitter from a Mail message, I’m not taken to the tweet but to a blank screen that read “Nothing to see here - yet.”

Anyone else?

Yes, I'm having the same issue - extremely frustrating.

There's quite the thread over on Apple's forums, so they are definitely aware. And it is clearly an iOS-issue.
I can't imagine Twitter is too thrilled with this particular bug. Directly impacts engagement.

 

[scouser75]

Thanks mate. And phew! At least it's not just me!

Not a solution, but this functionality is now working for me. I launch Mail, call up an email from Twitter, and now when I touch a link in their email, it auto launches Twitter app and takes me to the expected tweet.

Anyone else seeing this functionality magically restored?

 

[lazyrighteye]

I have confirmed that old twitter links still yield the “nothing to see here” message. So maybe “the fix” is the way Twitter is coding their email.
Interested to hear details on said fix.

Guys mine seems to have started to work again. No more "nothing to see here yet" messages.

No idea how as I haven't changed anything nor updated the app.

Same. Was broken, did nothing, now it's fixed. I think that would have to be on Twitter's end - how they are now building/coding their email. Maybe?
