http authentication doesn't work properly in companion app

[joinn1710]

If you have a home assistant server protected by HTTP authentication, the app supports inputting the credentials, but several things make it sometimes impossible to use.
To check the web address, i open it in a web browser, and it works like it should. then when trying to access it via the app, it gives me the login window, but after a couple seconds, it pops a new window on top saying it couldn't connect. then once I manage to enter the login information, it either works, or I mistyped something, and i'm locked out with no way of trying again. it's also not possible for some reason or other to add the username and password in the web address field.

or I mistyped something, and i'm locked out with no way of trying again. it's also not possible for some reason or other to add the username and password in the web address field.

we cant fix anything if you get locked out, that is part of a feature you have enabled to lock out unsuccessful login attempts

your issue is the server is rejecting the app, we cannot fix that as we expect successful response. What is your HA setup like? Are you using a Proxy? Anything else with authentication to consider?
