# Usual Suspects ## Can't download or open the app If you can't download an app, please check if any of the below conditions apply to you: **Android User:** * [ ] **You need a Google Play account and/or should be signed in on your device.** You must be signed in to your Google Play account in order to download apps for Android devices. **Apple User:** * [ ] **You do not have an Apple ID/account and/or are not signed in to your Apple account on your device.** You must be signed in to your Apple account in order to download Apple apps. * [ ] You may need to [trust the Developer Account (private apps only)](#untrusted-developer-whats-this) * [ ] **You are using Safari to view the web app.** Please use Chrome to view the web app on your Apple device. **All Users:** * [ ] **Your connection has timed out.** You must be online to access a platform app via desktop, tablet or mobile. Check your internet connection and try again. * [ ] **Make sure your device is** [**compatible**](https://help.falkor.io/common-problems/device-requirements). Check if your browser or device has an update here: [**Update Chrome**](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95414?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop\&hl=en) **|** [**Update Firefox**](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-release) **|** [**Update Internet Explorer**](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028118/windows-run-the-latest-version-of-internet-explorer-11) **|** [**Update Android**](https://support.google.com/android/answer/7680439?hl=en) **|** [**Update iOS**](https://support.apple.com/en-za/HT204204) * [ ] **If your device is** **incompatible,** [**install Google Chrome**](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95346?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop\&hl=en-GB) on your device and use the web app instead. * [ ] **You have downloaded the app but can't sign in.** If you have forgotten your password, use the "Forgot Password" option. If you have a platform backend account, you must login with these details and may not use the "Forgot Password" option. * [ ] **Your invitation to join the invite-only app may have expired**. [Request a new activation code](https://help.falkor.io/installing-and-accessing#invites-and-activation-codes) via the link in the invitation email or contact your account agent who will be able to re-send your invitation. ## App or content not loading If you are struggling to install an app or access content...**Try This!** * [ ] **Uninstall and reinstall the app.** Delete the app from your device and reinstall. * [ ] **Remove the content** that's not loading and re-add it from the Discover section. {% hint style="info" %} **Tried everything?** Please submit an [**App Debug Report**](https://help.falkor.io/log-issues#log-issues-send-debug-report)**.** {% endhint %} ## Not getting emails If you are not getting invite, activation or password reset emails from the platform, this could be due to a number of reasons. The platform **uses a mail server that has a 99% uptime.** If mails are not being received, please check the following: 1. Check with your mail supplier and **whitelist** the **platformname.io** and any other **platform** domains (contact the platform provider). 2. The email may have ended up in your inbox **spam/trash folder** - please check. 3. Your **inbox is full** and you are unable to receive email. 4. The **email address used to invite you was not spelled correctly** - please check again carefully. 5. The email was received but **overlooked / sender not recognised**. All app invite emails are sent from the platform. 6. **You have a platform backend account** and have tried to reset your password on the app. Backend users must reset their password on the platform backend. ## Web app not working When the **Progressive Web App** (PWA - the app version that runs on a web browser) does not load correctly, it may be because: 1\. Your **browser** is [not up to date](https://updatemybrowser.org/), or\ 2\. You have a **plugin** installed that is blocking the app. ### **Try This!** 1\. Make sure your are using a **compatible browser** ([latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari](https://bestvpn.org/outdatedbrowser/en)) 2\. Make sure the **browser is up-to-date** ([check latest versions](https://bestvpn.org/outdatedbrowser/en)). 3\. If the app still does not load, open an [incognito tab](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95464?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop\&hl=en) in your browser and open the web app link. If the web app loads then there is likely an issue with an **installed plugin** (possibly an ad-blocker). Check your plugins for settings that may be blocking the **platformname.io** domain. 4\. If you have checked that your plugins and your browser are compatible and up-to-date, you may be experiencing a **network issue**. If you are at your place of work, check with your IT team to see if they setup any protocols that would **block** loading the web app. {% hint style="warning" %} **Note:** If you are on a slow or weak internet connection, content (specifically video content) will take longer to load. {% endhint %} ## Untrusted Developer - what's this? If you are on an **Apple** **device** and are trying to install a private app, you may see a message that looks something like this: ![](https://3772773674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-M0XmAhM7d_mzxXtFruX%2F-M0XnU3hrc7WIo-t-9pV%2F-M0XtFNk2jjevas0vQLx%2Fiphone6-ios9-enterprise-untrusted_enterprise_app-577x1024.png?alt=media\&token=0e09dcb8-5b65-429e-8c29-3a67157570e7) You will need to **trust the app developer** on your phone. **Why?** This is because the app has been published privately and is not on the Apple App store. i.e. you are manually installing the app, therefore you must also manually establish trust. **What to do?** Tap Settings > General > Profiles or Profiles & Device Management. Tap on “Developer Name”, then tap on “Trust Developer Name”. After doing this, the app will be installed on your device.\ \ For instructions on how to verify and trust Enterprise app developers, please view Apple's guidelines (Install custom enterprise apps on iOS).
