Unable to access app on iOS

[fivecapes]

Unable to login on both iPad and iPhone iOS 12.2. Woke up this morning unable to refresh posts, and subsequently unable to login. Uninstalling and reinstalling does not work either.

W7 Chrome version was wonky very briefly ie. clicking on banner gave an error (unable to take down details).

Identical issue here as first post. Started Saturday.
iOS 12.3.1 iPhone 6S
On the same device on web site I get a notification re cloudflare checking for compatibility.

Yeah, something happened Friday night or Saturday morning. I see a lot of replies from the web site about Cloudflare which sits between me and the real web site. Tapatalk on iOS is hosed for many (all in the US?) right now. And web browsers are really confused too.

I'm seeing a 'similar' thing too (Desktop, Windows 10, Chrome). The last few days, I get a message saying it wants to check if it's OK to connect my browser. It pauses for a few seconds, and I guess it decides everything is OK, and away we go. I thought it was the new version of Chrome, but maybe it's something in the way the forums are set-up. Whatever, it only seems to happen the first time and all seems well after that.

Cloudflare provides distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack solutions. It seems that accessing this forum goes through Cloudflare’s servers. So your computer has to first be vetted by Cloudflare before it will let it connect to the web site. But this redirection is breaking mobile device apps like tapatalk. And is also what is causing the few second delay checking in via your web browser. Tapatalk have had issues with Cloudflare off an on for a few years.

The internet gangsters keep getting meaner and the legitimate companies and their users suffer for it.

Thing is I don't and have never had Tapatalk on either iOS device or desktop.

Access back up on both devices now. Takes a while to reload, probably from servers being hammered from the recovery.

Back to normal for me as well.
