Google Sign-In Not Working

Troubleshoot issues with Google Sign-In on different devices and browsers.

If Google Sign-In is not working, here are common causes and solutions.


Popup Blocked

Symptom: Nothing happens when you click "Continue with Google", or you see a popup blocked warning.

Fix:

  1. Check your browser's address bar for a popup blocked icon
  2. Click it and choose "Always allow popups from kompdesk.com"
  3. Try signing in again

Kompdesk automatically falls back to a redirect-based sign-in if popups are blocked, so you may be redirected to Google's sign-in page instead of seeing a popup.


Opened From Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp or Another App

Symptom: A full-page message tells you to open Kompdesk in your browser, and you cannot go further.

Links opened inside Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, TikTok, LinkedIn, Snapchat, Pinterest or X use that app's built-in browser. Google refuses sign-in there, and sign-in, registration and payment progress made there does not carry over to your real browser. So Kompdesk stops and asks you to switch.

Fix:

  • Android: tap Open in Chrome
  • iPhone and iPad: tap Open in Safari. If the app ignores the button, use the menu in the app (the three dots or the compass icon) and choose Open in browser, or tap Copy link and paste it into Safari

There is no "continue anyway" option. Start again in the real browser and sign in there.


Device Compatibility

Symptom: "Google Sign-In is not available on this device."

Some devices (particularly Huawei phones and devices without Google Mobile Services) do not support Google Sign-In. In this case:

  • Use email and password registration instead
  • Create your account with a valid email address
  • Verify your email through the link sent to your inbox
