I am developing an app (in flutter) where I want to use the official Strava app as a possible means of authentication using the oauth2 flow as describes in the Strava documentation.

However, I am stuck in getting the official Strava to work at all in the Android simulator (I’m using IntelliJ Ultimate in case it matters). This is completely unrelated to the app I am developing, using these steps:

  1. create an Android image including the Appstore in the simulator (I tried Pixel 4, Pixel 8a, Pixel Pro XL with different versions of the Android api)
  2. install the Strava app from the Appstore (need to sign in to your google account)
  3. start the Strava app
  4. enter your email address, wait for the one-time-token
  5. enter the one-time token
  6. see a red notification with “try again with new token”

Tried with two different accounts, on separate days, at least two dozen times.

Sadly I no longer have an account available with a regular password login.

 

Anyone else having this issue?
