Facebook app refusing correct password on new iPad

the problem exists when we have 2FA switched on and we use i.e. Authenticater

Authenticator generates 6 digit codes in 30s periods but when we try to fill the code which will expire soon (3s or less) and the last digit is fill to messanger prompt 10 sekunds after the validity period for 6-digit code, application will try verify the code but after few sekunds will log off to login password screen and then filling even true login password (i.e. from password manager) will gives "Invalide login or password"

The only solution is a factory reset of iPad - uninstall and install messanger won't help.

Also login to Facebook app on iPad will gives the same error then.

only factory reset of iPad helps

Hello gnarlybole,

Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities about issues with the Facebook app, and the password for the account.

The only option is to manually type in the password and see if it's an issue with the saved password, or the way it was typed in.

It may have also been locked if there was an account issue, meaning a reset would be required. Since this is with the account password in a third-party app, please contact Facebook for help resetting the password. Once reset, the new one should work. If not, contact Facebook for help with their app: How to contact an app developer - Apple Support

Thanks.

Hi gnarlybole,

Since you're not having the issue with other devices, you may be right about it being something with the app. The steps on this page may help, especially Step 4, when you get down to it.

If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open - Apple Support

If still an issue, then contacting Facebook would again be the best option. This page we found may help get you started:

Facebook Help Center

Take care!

Ridiculous! This is an Apple iPad problem, solely. Got a new iPad & can’t log into FB. Manually inputting password but it never resolves. Fine on iPhone. Give us answers or this iPad is going back.

Facebook has known problems with its iPad app.

And it is their responsibility to remedy the problems.
