I use Slide since ever on my iPhone (7.1.1 build 229) and used it on an older iPad until recently, on both I was logged in as user.Now I got the app for Mac and a new iPad (same build). The authentification does not work here. I follow the same procedure, login is successful in the reddit popup window. It then closes but the "guest" does not update to user mode. I logged out on iPhone, did not make the login work on either devices. I can relog on the iPhone, no issue. Two things I noticed after multiple tries (1) it did update the frontpage to my user's frontpage, but I still browse it as guest (2) sometimes after auth, an error page from reddit web displays in the popup with "Invalid request" (wrong application ID). Sometimes the popup just clauses.
TL:DR Auth works on iOS on all 3 devices, but the app only logs me as user on iPhone, I cannot leave "guest" mode on iPad or Mac.
EDIT: Fixed somehow, I installed the "official reddit app" on my iPad, logged into it, then logged in with slide and ... it worked. Deinstalled the official reddit app afterwards, still authenticated.
