Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/jberkel/sms-backup-plus/issues/453

On accounts with TOTP enabled, you have to enter an authentication code only available in the Authenticator app. Unfortunately, the google login browser window resets every time you (re)enter the app.

Workaround: Be fast! Get an auth code, login into google and enter it fast or it wont work.

Fix: Disable reload after app switching.

Well, I opened this issue ~6 months ago. I Installed the app again and it seems to work now, so you can probably close this issue.
