Can't login to the Nighthawk app
Model: R8000P
I have used the Nighthawk app for a year now, no problems. Bought a new phone, tried to sign in to Nighthawk app, no error message, just always returns to the login app. So I tr...
Holy crap, I got it to work!!!!!!
So read on another thread about clearing cache and app, then trying again. I did that a few times and nothing. I tried changing my passord many times too, that didn't work too. I removed special characters from my password, that didn't work at all.
So I am writing angry emails, angry post. I try one more time, force stop the app, then I cleared the cache and data. Next I went back to the nighthawk app and tried to login, I finally get the two step authentication pop up, this never popped up in all my attempts. It was linked to my phone and my email. So I selected email and entered in the code, then admin code and boom I am in.
I guess in short the solution is keep force stopping, clear cache and data, then try again until you get 2 step up. Also try and remove special characters from password if this doesn't work.
Netgear's support is crap, probably the last time I buy or suggest any of their products.
I am also on the same boat as you are. I had my phone replaced under warranty and reinstalled everything including the Nighthawk app. It was working OK under my old phone and I was able to set it up initially without any issues.
The problem now was when I tried to setup the app on this new phone it wouldn't let me pass the Netgear Account login. I am sure I am putting the right email and password. It just looks like it's logging me in but nothing happens. The app is literally stuck at the Netgear Account login screen.
Did you found any solution?

I deleted the app and all its associated data. Reinstalled the app and re-entered my netgear credentials.
This fixed it for me

- I tried that too but with no luck, deleted data, uninstalled/reinstalled app from the playstore. I was able to work my way around now inside the app but I still can't login to the Netgear Account hence I can't get the remote management On. I can't also use the Genie app as my router is no longer supported, asked me to install the Nighthawk app.

Just click the nag notification away (or use the back button) and you can use the Genie App as before.
You can also install the Nighthawk app and use it alongside the genie.
Installing one does not remove the other.
