Change to the Login Experience

NEW Updates as of 12 Oct 2023

The CitSci login changes will go into affect on the website October 12-13. An updated version of the mobile apps is also required because of the login changes. Due to the way the Apple and Google Play Store approve and update mobile apps there might be some downtime where the mobile apps don’t function as expected. The mobile apps will be down for maintenance related to the login changes between Oct 13-15. Once the changes have taken affect on the mobile app, you will be asked to re-login the next time you open the apps. We’ll update this blog post again, once all maintenance has been completed.
