is there any way to log in to the app if you created your makerbot account through a google account?

Same login problem. Search is not working. Does not enter the android application.

Just turn the login off so we can at least browse the site with the app. Looks like you my be able to get away with just disabling JavaScript on the login page.

So... Is the app still a thing? Did it die or did development just stop? Would be very handy but I know Apps cost money.

soooo, it's almost September 22 and this shit is still down... unbelieveble...

An invalid answer is returned when the program attempts to oauth-connect to the thingiverse website. It's possible that the certificate has expired, but it's more probable that there is a problem with the redirects.

This is more than dissapointing... its now March 2022 and it appears no one is monitoring this thread to fix the bug

I found a way around the bug!!!

  1. try and login
  2. you will you get the java error
  3. it asks you to re enter email and password
  4. But you are logged in
  5. now click the "About MakerBot Thingivers" at the bottom of the app
  6. click the options tab at top right corner of app
  7. now click settings!
  8. click the option tab again at top right corner
  9. now click My Profile
  10. you are now logged in!!!!!!!

I cant always find a way around things But i did this time
Pleas fix the App

   Thingiverse Please contact me if you need help! i would love to help fix these problems.

LOOOOOOL !!!

Thingiverse REALLY SHOULD ask you to help them. They can thank you a lot.

Great job dear, it work ! ;)

thanks, great idea. can't believe 2021 and its been like a year that this app is broken

Danke für die Anleitung! Damit konnte ich endlich eine Kollektion erstellen!

I have read it's the special characters that in the passwords. Set you password without special characters and trying again and no this is not acceptable that the app has a 1 in The play store.

Nevermind... No Clue

fking fix this app, its been broken since 07/2020, i cant understand how is still not fixed

Ok, removed the app as it doesn't work anymore for a while now. In app store it isn't compatible anymore with my phone. So can't reinstall in amyway. Please fix

The app is broken.
It is known.
And Makerbot is just fully silent about it.
If a staff sees this: WHAT. IS. HAPPENING?
Seriously, I'm a bit worried about the wellbeing and the future of Thingiverse… please take care of him!

:_( sigue sin funcionaaaaaaaaar (still broken)

impossible to login the app with my Thingiverse account user name and pswrd

Still broken. Has anyone had a response from the makers??

The Android app has been broken and giving the java error since about May 2020.
Makerbot, please give some kind of update whether you plan on fixing it or we should find a 3rd party app to browse thingiverse on Android.
I really can't understand why there hasn't been any update on this, whatsoever. Way to alienate the community you created!....

The issue is not with the app, but on server side.
When the app tries to oauth - connect to the thingiverse website it does not get a valid response.
Maybe the certiciate has expired more more likely is , that something is wrong with the redirects.

@makerbot It would go a long way if you would just acknowledge that the app is currently broken.

Just sayin.

Same here, java crap error

Same problem, thingiverse doesn't seem to care tho

Im just running into this now. Wondering if anyone in this thread has come across a solution yet. Also, Thingiverse, any comments on this? Seems like a problem worth putting some effort into, allot of users including myself are using your platform entirely from Android, so this is quite a deal breaker for the platform as a whole if the app doesnt funtion.

Same problem here. Reset password via PC browser. Reinstalled App. I would expect a faster fix from the maker community of maker communities!

Same problem here. Would like an update when it is fixed!

Identical problem here. Thingiverse Android app seems quite broken. I already tried a shorter password (<16 characters) and no special characters but none helps.

Still not working. Not sure it ever has.

Java.lang.illegalstateexception: expected BEGIN_OBJECT...(Cannot read the rest of the error code)

Yup created multiple accounts tried multiple devices. Same results. Garbage

Still getting Java error trying to login.
Have reset password several times.
Still can't login into android thingiverse app

I am experiencing the same problem

Non funziona!!!
Santa Maria di Leucaaaaaa

can't download stl file

For me, too, still the same error.

27.12.2020 Same Java Error

Java Error still here, YO Thingiverse you mind commenting on this?

Still doesn't work Java code: i can't login

Same Java Code here still

App appears to have been removed from Google play store, and Samsung App stores!!

Same java error on login! Nov 2020

Same java error on login! 29-Nov-2020

Same here, can't login. Java error

I haven't been able to get in either, uninstalled and reinstalled and also getting: Java.lang.illegal...
Is anyone working to correct this?

Yes I'm getting the java.lang.illegal too

Same java error on login, I'll wait for a while but I will move eventually away from platform if it does not work properly

Any update on this? Haven't been able to log in for months... What's going on? We should all rate the app 1 star and see if that will get their attention

Currently rated 1.1 on the Google Play Store with over 7k reviews. I'd say this is being done already. I'm frankly shocked that MakerBot can't throw together a halfway useable app.

At this point, they'd be better off releasing a devkit and sanctioning an open-source community app.

Cant log into app: "java.lang.IllegalStateException........:

Same problem, since months, on at least 3 different Android devices. Please fix this, since the redesign of the Website, app was much more helpful.

Some problem. Can´t login. Java exception

Seems this error has been around for a while, PLEASE FIX
Can't login. Fault code:
java.lang.illegalstateexception expected

Comment has been deleted

Hi,

I have the same problem, have you found a solution?

No sorry still don't work here.

I can´t login too. Any solution?

I also like to know if this app will get fixed.

Have anyone more information about this issue ?

Is this going to get fixed ?

Me too
unable to login "java error illegal..."

Installed the Thingiverse app for the 1st time, but just continuously get an error (attached) each time I attempt logging in. Have tried over multiple days in case it was server-side. Cleared cache, cleared storage, uninstalled & reinstalled - no better. Oh well.

Me too
Java something illegal

same problem for me -> unable to login "java error illegal..."
That's a pity

I'm having troubles with thé Java message at living for several weeks now. Please take a look en fix it! Seems to be related to thé most recent android release. I don't have a stock version (on plus). But I experience thé issue ons oxigen OS 10.3.5.

Can not login to the app. Java error like below.

I have problems logging in. search doesn't work. the android does not enter the application.

Same problem here. First, the search function ceased to return any results. Now the app only returns an error when trying to log in. The site itself may be having troubles - the last item I upload only rendered one of my parts files in the pictures - very unusual.

The app has not once let me get passed the login screen.

I used it months ago and it was working fine, having the same issue as you are now... must've been an update to the app?

I have the same problem. It just shows an error message.

Hello, same problem, do you find the solution?

Regards

Comment has been deleted

Hello, I've just installed the app and while most works perfectly fine, the search function never returns any results. I have a Xaomi Pocophone F1, I wonder if anyone can help?

Comment has been deleted

Missing basic functions such as editing a Made file. The ability to edit anything is missing I believe. It is decent but it can be good or even great with some simple functions.

Comment has been deleted

Why the hell ist the App not compatible with my device??? It used to be nd I need just a simple App to not have to use the buggy website - What is so complicated about that? The app is no high quality 3D game that requires specific hardware so why is my device not compatible?

Handy and mostly functional. It always seems to hang up on loading my 'Collections', so I have to favorite Things and come back to them later on PC. Not the end of the world, but makes it fairly clumsy.

HI I accidetly disabled this app on my profile and can't enable it again... How do I do that?

From some point of time i can`t upload photos to my designs 8(.

Comment has been deleted

Hi Y'All,
On the android App (on Samsung S8), in the "My collection" section isen't possible to see all the collection, it charge only a part of my collection.
Anothe problem is the editing of the "things": it's impossible to change the title (and other problem to reorder the photo)...

I hope that problems will be solved

Best regards

Had this for 3 months, seems really poor with numerous errors, cant upload or download anything!

I have the app on my Nvidia Shield tablet and a 3D printer which I can print to from it but I can't download files from the app. Kinda pointless!

I own two pretty nice tablets and I'm surprised to see that this app is not compatible with either of them. Both came out in 2017 so I'm not sure why that would be. Otherwise I love this site!
