[SOLVED] Unable to connect with Cadence (Android App)

Bug Reports
1

Hi!

when i try to connect to the Cadence app from my Samsung Galaxy S10E, i get stuck on the connection dialogue in Google Chrome.
I can do what i want, nothing is working except the logout button!

Are there already any solutions out there for this? I was not able to find useful information with the desired search words here :see_no_evil_monkey:

Thatā€™s almost surely a ā€˜Permissionā€™ issue.
Most of this stuff requires Location services.

Hi MedTechCD, thankā€™s for your answer.
I am able to request location on google maps. So the browser in general is able to request location.
The thing is, when i click OK, nothing happens, when i click on CANCEL, also nothing happens.
No dialogs, no questions, nothing.

I already deleted Website data and permissions and retried, still no success.

Cheers

Ben

Did you try another browser?

Hi R2Tom, i just tried FireFox and Microsoft Edge, but still no luck.

Just tried it on iOS and it works.
Donā€™t know if you can disable popups on android, and thatā€™s the case for you. On iOS there is a popup to open it in cadence app

Maybe @Ryan_Sommers has an idea whatā€™s wrong there

Thank you,

Ryan already told me to try with another browser.
The funny part is that it works just fine when i connect strava via oauth.

So for me it has something to do with intervals.icu itself.

8

Yes i am shure the problem is within intervals.icu, as it also does not work on my pixel 9 where i installed cadence just now and it works for strava there too, but not for intervals.icu.

9

But in OAuth 2.0, the redirect URI (ā€œreturning addressā€ by clicking OK) is defined by the app (client) and registered with the authorization server ahead of time.

Can you open that link?
cadence://
(Copy it to your browser address bar, and hit return, it should open the cadence app)

10

I canā€™t force the browser to open this url by typing it. It will always try a search.
i also tried this: cadence://intervalsicu

i removed the client_id but that is the url to where i am directed:
https://intervals.icu/oauth/authorize?client_id=xx&redirect_uri=cadence://intervalsicu&scope=ACTIVITY:WRITE,CALENDAR:WRITE,LIBRARY:READ

however, if i open the page on my linux desktop using chrome, i get this:

so yes, in general the mechanism seems to work, but not for me on my two android phones with versions 12 and 16 and chrome/firefox/edge

11

I figured it was on the browser side of things, but if cadence:// should open Cadence, maybe itā€™s on my end? Iā€™m not super knowledgable about Oauth, sounds like I need to do some investigating.

12

As you see, it wants to open the cadence app. The url scheme is defined by the app.

I think this is not on intervals side, as it redirect to the correct uri

Can you open strava:// ?

(But maybe this works only on iOS this way)

13

strava:// doesnā€™t work for me on Android either. It sounds like on Android the browser needs to navigate to the link, but Intervals is using a button with Javascript. Maybe thatā€™s part of the issue?

14

Okay, confirming it does look like itā€™s on my end of things, an issue with registering the custom scheme. Iā€™ll get an update submitted shortly @_btheg. Thanks for the helpful comments @R2Tom.
