Enabling mobile app

[abargel]

I've followed the instructions from the docs, but get a "Bad credentials" error message when trying to log in through the Android app.

I've been trying to figure it out, but am a bit confused by the fact that the artisan command generates a password_client secret, when in the env file we enter a personal_access_client secret. That being said, I tried generating a personal_access_client secret too, with same result.

Am I missing something so obvious that it didn't need inclusion in the docs? I'm trying to log in with my email address and password that I use in browser.

@abargel Which android app are you using? It seems the app they had (called 'chandler') is now deprecated and unlisted from play store - https://www.monicahq.com/blog/state-mobile-apps

@girish Hm, thanks, I didn't realize that there was this history. Seeing no app on Play Store, I'd found one on ApkPure, but checking now it is from 2018... So, no wonder it's not working.

Is there less interest in making Android apps given that connecting through a browser on a phone is a "not that bad" experience at this point?

Maybe in the Cloudron docs, you could update the part about enabling the app? If it's not relevant anymore.

@abargel yup, added a note about chandler being deprecated.

@girish Thanks! As you can see, being a newbie I'm relying a lot on the docs to set up basic use, without being able to understand very much behind it!
