[App] Is Flipboard working for you? (Windows 8.1)

[xankazo]

I'm getting an "error" message that Flipboard is under maintenance. It doesn't work and it has been like this since at least yesterday.
Is it working for you?

Yes, but there's a flaw in the instagram account in flipboard, it compromises your account and will alert you to re-verify your account with a security captcha.

 

[xankazo]

OK, thanks. This is the error I'm getting.

I'll try uninstalling the app and reinstalling it.

I found this error message as well. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and that seemed to "fix" the issue

 

[xankazo]

Nah, I reinstalled it and the same error came up.

I have the same error, been two days now. It tells you to go to their Twitter account but there is nothing there about a Windows 8 outage. Has anyone seen anything on Twitter or Flipboard support? I will also try to uninstall / reinstall

 

[Joe Dubya]

When I tried to download front the store I got an error, retried, got it installed but same maintenance message...

 

[Joe Dubya]

I reinstalled today and it seems to be working.

Yeah had this a few days ago, but I think there was an update recently and it's working again.

Is anyone else still having issues with the app. I thought a reinstalled had corrected the login and updating issues but as of today, the app no longer updates.... I contacted the support group within Flip Board regarding the issue and received nothing more than a canned response telling me to uninstall/reinstall the program....

I just noticed it too. Mine hasn't updated for 4 days.

As of 1/2/2014, my last un-install/re-install didn't fix the refresh issue. It now won't accept the credentials, at least my Android phone has my flipboard working. Must be a Win8.1 app problem.

I'd like to bump this thread as i'm getting the same error. "Flipboard not avaliable," multiple un and re-installs did not help. It came preinstalled on my Surface 2 and never worked. Any ideas?

 

[xankazo]

I've just uninstalled it today. It wasn't showing the "Flipboard not available" error, it simply wouldn't update. Apparently the Flipboard team has given Windows 8 the cold shoulder as they don't seem to be updating/fixing their app. My patience ran off.

 

[gedzum]

Sorry to hear people still having problem with this. Flipboard is working well on my laptop and desktop. Has anyone tried getting in touch with their support team?
