Error Message

Error Messages/Logs

Root Cause

When I try to log in to Claude on any platform, Chrome or Mac app, it automatically redirects me to onboarding as a new user, even though I'm using the correct email address. I am logged in properly on an iPhone app so I can see the email address is correct and the account is active and is a paid pro user. All attempts to clear cash, cookies, incognito, safari, everything brings the same result. And I can't report it properly to support because I cannot log in and my iPhone app doesn't let me contact support. Your help bot couldn't help me and suggested that I open this issue on GitHub.

What Should Happen?

I should be redirected to my logged in page showing all my chats.
