Login repeatedly fails with a fleeting error message that vanishes before the user can capture it, preventing access to the app and blocking work.

The error message disappears too quickly to screenshot or read, making it impossible to troubleshoot the login issue or report it to support. The app provides no persistent error log or accessible error details.
