Hi,

Since the last Zendesk app mobile update to 2.15.0 and IOS 15 - the Zendesk app keeps logging me out .

I'm using SSO with my Azure, iPhone with IOS 15 and Zendesk app version 2.15.0.

The app don't disconnect me straight ... It takes indefinite time....After I log out I am required to re-enter the domain name , user name and password .

any idea ?is there other users who are experiencing the same problem as me?

Thanks!

Hi Lior, 

Will from the mobile apps team here. We have tested the mobile app extensively with iOS 15 but did not encounter the same behaviour that you've experienced. We're going to keep an eye on this and do some more testing to make sure that the app is behaving as expected. 

If anyone else has encountered this issue, please post a comment as it will help us to understand if this is an isolated incident or more widespread. 

Thanks!

Hi Will,

I did another test with my iPad, operating system iPad OS 15 and Zendesk app version is 2.12.1 - and here too I am required to sign in after an unspecified time ...

As I mentioned we uses Azure Active Directory single sign-on (SSO) integration with Zendesk (use MFA)
Do you know of anything that could be related to AZURE?

Thanks!

Hi Lior, 

Could you update your iPad Zendesk Support app version to 2.15 and try again? 

We have no other reports of issues with SSO at present. Could you reach out to your Azure provider as well to make sure there is no issues on their side? 

Thanks and keep us updated.

Hi, I'm experiencing the same problem after updating to iOS15 on iPhone 12 pro. Zendesk app version 2.15.0. 

Not sure how long it needs to be idle but when it signs out you're then prompted to re-enter the domain and credentials again. 

I missed the notification for a critical incident due to this as I heavily rely on the mobile app when working outside of standard business hours.

FYI our authentication is not setup with SSO.

Thanks,

Isi
