When I log in to ChatGPT, I am prompted for a login failure and a message "something went wrong. please make sure your device's date and time are set properly"

i’m iphone user, i also suffering with this issue since months ago but still persisting. the shown "something went wrong. please make sure your device’s date and time are set properly. check that your internet connection is stable, then restart the app and try again. (code: 343366A2-4B12-4F74-A51E-8951DA9F2552, API.Device-checkError,2) .

anyone know the support number ? i really want call support to fix this issue. i have been paid for this service but not able to use, which is not acceptable.

I see I’m not the only one…
The app stopped working about a week ago. Browser login on phone still works.
I’ve tried all of the above suggestions.
…I’m a beta tester, maybe try stable release…?

Edit 1: Nope, still same error…Processing: 1000000423.jpg…
Edit 2: Turning off wifi and use mobile data works.

There’s no solution.
Android 13, Firefox as default browser.

I’m gonna to ask a partial refund and I suggest you to do the same.

OpenAI is not being transparent about the real issue. This is not a network error but a Play Integrity and SafetyNet issue, which is why it hasn’t been resolved. Essentially, your phone isn’t deemed trustworthy.

Here’s how to fix it:

  1. Pass SafetyNet and Play Integrity:

    • Ensure all your banking apps work on your phone. If they don’t, fix your phone until they do.
    • Once your banking apps are functioning, proceed to the next step.
  2. Clear Data on the ChatGPT App:

    • Disable any VPNs (usually not a major issue), then attempt to log in.
    • Sometimes, SafetyNet responses are cached for up to 24 hours, so you may need to wait and try again after this period.
    • Clear the ChatGPT app data before each attempt.

That’s all there is to it. There’s no magic involved. Your phone needs to pass SafetyNet and Play Integrity checks. Basic integrity passing is sufficient; strong integrity is not necessary.

I wasted a lot of time on this because OpenAI misled us, making us think this was a network or region error. It’s none of that. Try this it worked.

the same issue on Macos. have no idea

Could you provide more details, please? don’t know how to do that on Mac.

Same error started yesterday for me - android app, trying to log in through google auth

I tried all things that were recommended and it didnt work.

What helped was,

i went in Settings and found “Date and time”, than turned on “Set time zone based on location” (maybe a bit diferently called on your phone).

I hope this will help someone.

This is a 100% play store problem. Try updating your play store to the latest version, if that doesn’t work make sure the email you are using to sign in to google playstore is the same you are using on chatgpt…I don’t how but it worked like a charm for me…also you might consider syncing your region if you are vpn person

Bump.

The permanent fix of this hug should be the #1 priority for the dev team behind the app.

And, fun fact: openai refuse to give me a refund /partial refund for this problem: that’s insane.

Any Soltions for Mac app desktop version? Please help

Maybe you can try this method.

  1. Open Chat GPT in a browser (I use Chrome)
  2. Login to your Chat GPT account.
  3. Once logged in, make sure you can access Chat GPT from your browser.
  4. Click the three dots on the top right
  5. Select “Add to home screen”
  6. A pop up will appear to install Chat GPT. Select “Install”

Wait a few moments, because Chat GPT will automatically install the application to your cellphone.
After the “Chat GPT installed” notification appears, Chat GPT should already appear in your phone’s application list.
Open the app, and you will be automatically logged in.

(Found this in the replies below, having tried many other suggestions previously, this one worked instantly. Copied below from user dated [May 9]

Here a FIX for Android:

  1. Clear the cache of Google play store.
  2. Install the last version of chatGPT.
  3. Clear the cache of chatGPT.
  4. GO to settings → apps → Google Play Store → uninstall updates
  5. open Google Play Store and Update it to the last version
  6. Open chatGPT… And :partying_face:
