Hello. Running ios 12 on an iphone 6.

Summary: when I want to connect an app whether it be old or new to my twitter the connect button is dimmed.

Steps Varries with apps, but see if you can get to the authorise twitter to use x app page.

I should be able to see the connect button and have it not dimmed but it is dimmed. This is on old and new apps. I do have the twitter app installed, so how can I fix this?

Take care all. I've ben having this problem for about 2 weeks now.

Thought it was just an issue for me, but the same happened when I tried to authorise DiceWorld a week ago.

Yes, this is a bug I also had. This is how I fixed it.
NOTE: It's not the best method.

1) Uninstall the Twitter app.
2) Open the app and try connecting your account, it should open a Sfari-like window.
3) Fill in credentials, then hit "Allow."
4) Now, re-install the Twitter app.

I think it's somethingn wrong with twitter app. I reinstalled the twitter app and the connect button are all dimmed. O yeah this is going to be annoying. Oh well.

By the way just to add, the loging in to game world with out the twitter app does not work. I already tried. It does not want to seem to launch safari or what ever it launches. I hope twitter can and will fix this on their website/app.

Strange, because when I tried to connect Timecrest to Twitter, the connect button was dimmed, and just by uninstalling the Twitter app I was able to connect Timecrest via the Safari window. Maybe this is something we have to contact Twitter about?

Yep I did it with time crest, but not with game world which I've never used. I even uninstalled twitter, tried to connect game world and instead of taking me to the web page it brought me back to the "connect as new user" screen.

Here is a [link to my latest tweet and a screen recording if that plays on twitter. Again I am not sure how to go further with this. This is very odd. If someone smarter than I can solve this, I'll jump for joy. Well, I cant jump anymore, but I'll pretend to lol!
