Logging off too soon and without reason

Post

I visit(ed) the site on my ipad, iphone and laptop, especialy the first two seem to logme off quite quickly. Even though I check "keep me logged in".
Can you look into this?
I don't have this problem on other message boards.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I've noticed that my iPad doesn't keep me logged in so I have to log in on every visit. It used to remember until a few weeks ago.

I have been noticing the last few weeks as well, just never thought to mention it.

I'm having the same problem. I had to log in tonight when I loaded the page. Then I loaded this thread to chime in I was having the same problem. Go to reply to the thread and I had to log in again.

I'm on an iPhone 5 right now.

All iPad and iPhone?
So all Safari? Or happening on other devices / browsers too?

I only have the problem on an iPad (using Safari). Also it only occurs on first viewing the site as long as I keep that tab open. If I close the F1T tab then I have to log back in if I go back to F1t.

No problems on Chrome on my Android phone or Firefox on Mac.

It's a safari issue; I personally use Chrome on my iphone, and I don't have any issues.

once you go chrome, you´ll never be alone.

I tend to avoid Chrome for privacy reasons, prefer firefox with a set of track- and add-blockers.

Do you find FF tends to be memory hungry?

The memory hungriness in FF has been solved a few releases ago. There is still an issue when your computer is coming out of sleep mode though, then its memory use is more than expected, but restarting FF resolves things.

We've recently done several tests at work, comparing chrome, FF and IE, and from all three, FF uses the least memory when having 10+ tabs open (which I always have).
