This issue comes from Google not Kinde
And how do I go about fixing this? I thought that by using Kinde I dont have to deal with Google permissiong 😦
Do I have to create an Google OAuth screen for Kinde?
And then connect it inside the Google Connection in Kinde.. right?
Unfortunately Google blocks request from webviews (e.g. TikTok, Facebook, Instagram in-app browsers). You can see this issue raised here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65353812/web-google-auth-workaround-for-403-disallowed-useragent-exists. The most unfortunate part is that it's out of our control to fix this issue.
As a workaround, I would suggest directing users to a Custom sign-up and sign-in pages when you can detect they are using a webview. The custom sign-up and sign-in page will not show Google as a social connection option. You can still direct users to the Kinde hosted sign-up and sign-in pages in all other cases.
