readycloud android app not connecting

In past several days, can no longer login to ReadyCloud account with android mobile app.  Colleague on different ReadyCloud account having same problem.  I can login from Windows ReadyCloud app, and can use IOS app.  On the android phone where the app does not login, I can login using Chrome from the same phone.  Have uninstalled and reinstalled the app from Play Store...same reasult.  Tried using wifi connection and tried using wireless carrier connection. Result is always the "Logging In..." message with spinning circle that never connects.

    Hi

    If you are facing VPN disconnected issue on Android app or Windows client,please turn off and turn on ReadyCLOUD service in admin UI or simply reboot the device to force restart leafp2p service.after that you will be able to get VPN connection again.

      I have also just noticed this problem trying to use the ReadyCloud app from my android phone (and my wife's too) as of today.

       

      The NAS itself is accessible on my home network by it's IP address and via the ReadyCLOUD website and seems to be working perfectly fine in all other regards but when I try to login using the app on my phone (where I do media backups of all my photos mainly) it just sits spinning saying "Logging in" and it never budges past the page stating "There is no ReadyCLOUD device managed by your NETGEAR account..."

       

      Certainly sounds like it's more of an app problem than the NAS problem but thought I'd join in to confirm a solution if possible?

       

      Cheers.

      Frasswass.

        I just lost acess to my Nas using an android device just today or yesterday. I tried another phone unfortunatly its also another android. I have reset both routers and all 4 switches runnning the network. I can Ping the NAS as well as access from mobile data. Once Wifi is on its lost. "Loggin Ig"

  • 1am Tuesday July 10 and i am able to log in for the first time in a week maybe. Phone is backing up photos and tablet is capable of seeing them. I am using it on the same network right now, still need to try a remote location. Working for now.

      Still no joy for me. I see my NAS on the app and it says it's online, but when I try to enable backup, I'm disconnected.

        I have been told their engineers will look into it. I had to shut down the app in settings and restart it for it to log in and to start uploading. It was initially okay, but now seems to drop out a bit and is slow and is now stopping or slowing to a crawl. It does show i am logged in and stalls at "Uploading" now. Was fast this morning.  I seem to be able to access my files via the app, but the media backup of pics is now stalled

      My app is still forever stuck saying cached and when trying to do a media back up, not only is it thing to backup all the previous pictures that should already be on the drive but it is not progressing at all with the status bar just sitting saying "Uploading... (4730 left) Waiting for connection..."

        I would do a forced shutdown of the app in your settings. If that does not work reboot your nas, since you are unable to connect to the service. Cache only means what you have saved on your phone. You need to see 'logging in' or connected. It has been working okay lately but is slow sometimes.
  • You realize this is a community and I have no affiliation with Netgear right? I only suggest what worked for me and that I have contacted tech support. Perhaps you should contact them yourself. It is working better than it has for me after doing so.

      Apologies, not casting aspertions on users, juts frustrated that Netgear are not the most pro-active supplier.

  • Why is readycloud app not available for download. It disappeared from google play.
