AFF on iPad worked a dream until June 9 when I returned home from EU. Prior to that I would login and stay logged in continuously.

On return from EU all of a sudden if I left AFF web site and used other apps or visited other sites when I returned to AFF I needed to login again.

I have checked every setting known to man - I have even been to Apply Store and they have rechecked settings for me - they say it is site specific. But it never happens on iPhone or on Desktop - only iPad.

It is also happening with Facebook so I am at a total loss - would AFF Admin have any clues? Any other AFFer ever experienced similar? TPITA
 
I'm not experiencing this issue but extending the prompt time for a 2FA code to maybe 60 or 90 days would be a quality of life improvement for me.
 
I read it as you have been repeatedly banned from AFF. ;)

Since it's also happening to @Cruiser Elite on Facebook, and only on one specific device, I also suspect that may be the culprit. Or there's something on there that's clearing his cookies regularly. I don't think it's an AFF-specific problem (and isn't a problem I've noticed myself).
 
@Cruiser Elite have you upgraded the iOS on your ipad recently. IME when apple do version and security upgrades things get reset in the background that you may not be away of.

Very much this is likely. Browser setting that's automatically clearing/expirng cookies. Can you try a different browser on your iPad?
