Orbi iOS app update 2.6.70 - can’t even login

[mkstewartesq]

Today, November 1, iOS prompted me that there is a new update to the Orbi app, which I downloaded and installed. However, the very first screen is for me to either login or set up a new account. Clicking on either one of those does absolutely nothing, and I can’t progress past this first screen. You just click on the “sign in“, the app flickers for a second and then returns to that screen. Just to see if the “create new account” option worked, I tried that and got the same result. So the app is unusable now.

I rebooted my phone but that made no difference.

Anyone else having a similar issue?

New app version is 2.6.70.

Hello mkstewartsq, 

If your still experiencing issues with your Orbi app connecting to your router. May you send me a private message with the following info.

Orbi Model:

Orbi Firmware Version:

Serial Number:

Orbi App Version: (please also specify if you're on iOS or Android)

And please let me know if you have the Nighthawk app installed on the same mobile device and if deleting the Nighthawk app helps.
