When launching the perspective iOS app. If the authentication is required instead of asking for user name and password in the app it forwards the user to the web interface and has them auth there. Then it never returns the user to the app. Is this normal or do I have some sort of issue here?

Additional note. For projects that do not require a login the project launches in the app as expected...

Any help would be appreciated....

I don't have anything to offer for fixing this but it looks like others have been running into the same issue (see last post in this topic for additional related topics):
