Signing in with Google fails in the app:

403. That’s an error.

Error: disallowed_useragent

Google can’t sign you in safely inside this app. You can use Google sign-in by visiting this app’s website in a browser like Safari or Chrome.

I've looked into it, it appears to be because Google is blocking oauth requests from webview apps. Sorry about that, I'd recommend either using the web app (https://i.ntention.app) or using a different provider to sign in.

When I use the web app I get the warning:

Intention is requesting access to your dwmartin41 account.

Doesn't inspire confidence in the amount of testing done.

I'm using auth0 to handle user login, and that's a message generated by their service. I agree it is very confusing, I'll see if there's a way to override it or disable it.

I've managed to disable that message, it shouldn't show up now

What's your useragent?

Whatever the app uses to do the login flow. Probably a standard webview?
