Mobile login problems: steempeak, steemconnect, keychain [steem]
Today mobile access to steempeak has been blocked. There is a new login prompt from steemconnet. I think it has a security setting that logs me out each week, but this time I had no simple method to log back in. So today I am stuck using steemit instead.
In the past I was able to login by clicking my profile that was pre-authorized to work on my mobile. Now I think steemconnect says I needs to use my keychain password to login. Huh?
Is this happening because I created a keychain password on my desktop, and it is blocking me from logging back in? Keychain is constantly requiring me to authorize everything I do.
Can anybody help explain this? Anything I can do to retain my steampeak login while I am on the go?
I make a policy to never, ever store passwords on my mobile phone for obvious reasons, and I always use difficult passwords that are unmemorizable and hard to type. Hopefully I won't have to walk around with a password written in my pocket.
Has anyon else recently had the same problem logging in that I am experiencing?
Update: Issue Resolved
The developer in the discord channel for steemconnect is very helpful.
The main problem I had was in misunderstanding what the keychain for steemconnect is.
Keychain is a new password you have to create if you want to continue using steemconnect to login.
Keychain is ALSO an app many people use, but this is NOT the same as the keychain password to use with steemconnect.
Make a NEW PASSWORD, save it, and only use it for steemconnect.
It get's easier...
Once you create a password, you can sign in normally without having to provide a password every time.
Authorize your device if you want to stay logged in, and it will allow you to sign in with the click of a button.

Hello @creativetruth, I hope you solve your problem quickly, we all know how important it is...
I invite you to stop by my last post...
Hola @creativetruth, si logras averiguar deberías hacer un post, es bueno tener este tipo de información a la mano, gracias por compartirlo…
How about @creativetruth, I understand, I've had to travel with the key in my pocket, which is not recommended.
Yeah I haven't figured it out yet. The reason I won't buy apple products is because every time I try to operate a device it demands I type my password blindly (hidden characters).
Keychain seems to be causing me a lot of unnecessary stress by requiring authorizations for everything I normally approve of. I'll have to see if they have a discord room with helpful staff who can recommend better settings to try.
Every action if you use keychain will require you to confirm, not much of an issue for me but it is something getting used to at @creativetruth
Found out the steemconnect keychain is a separate password.
I got so confused because I recently installed the keychain app to access steemengine.
Steemconnect keychain is NOT the keychain app passsword. Wonder how many other people got confused by this.
