Anyone else have this problem? It’s been bothering me for a while and is the last thing keeping me using mobile Chrome.

On the login page , after entering username and password, the “login” button does nothing. It might slightly change color but I am not directed to the site logged in, nor do I get an error.

platform: iOS

The username and password are entered automatically via either Firefox’s password store, or iOS’.

hmmm fuck, this is a confusing problem because everything on iOS is safari in the sheets — I’m not sure to what degree the various browser apps share state (cookies and cache) though. clearing those (and for mobile safari too) would be the first thing to try. other than that, are you able to fire up the dev tools for mobile Firefox and see if anything gets logged by JavaScript when you try to log in? this is definitely very inconvenient on mobile, so if this isn’t a step you’d like to take let me know and we can debug in a different direction
