    It might depend on your browser or even operating system (OS). Don't phones usually run on Android?
    Try this browser on your PC and then click to stay logged in: www.brave.com

    If your link to the forums got "messed up" some way and are pointing to "http://www.signforums.com/forums", it will not hold a persistent connection since it is not secure.

    Make sure the URL for your shortcut is "https://www.signforums.com/forums" and it should keep you logged in.

    Hope this helps.

    Did you click on the box, "Keep me logged in' at your initial sign-in?

    I had the same problem yesterday. This seems to happen from time to time.

    I have not encountered this. I have had a browser tab open to this site for uncountable time.

    Recently I haven't been able to log in hardly at all. I put in my info and I get the spinning circle of contemplation and it takes me back to the log in. Doesn't matter what browser I use. And usually if I do get logged in, it eventually has a system cramp of some sort and logs me out. :huh: So, I've been mostly an observer for a while now.

    I have had similar issues where I just can't get logged in. But the next day I don't seem to have any issues.

    I have "stay logged in" set and I always keep a browser tab open to the forum. I have not been "logged out" in as long as I can remember. I have not seen any issue like this.
    Past few weeks, I have had some issues with refreshing the page. The trouble logging in may actually be a connection issue with the forum. The host server may be having some issues.
    I always view the forum from the Recent Posts link and refresh the page every day.

    After a month of logging in every time I visit it now keeps me logged in. Fixed itself somehow.

    You probably just weren't holding your mouth right.
