Iboats isn't keeping me logged in.

This started maybe a few days ago. The site keeps logging me out. Sometimes I can close my browser a few times before it happens, sometimes just once. I don't know if it's because of a site update or a browser update, but the other two forums I'm on aren't doing it. It's just a bit annoying to have to keep looking up my password.

Sorry to hear about that, and your issue is a new one. When you login I seam to remember there is a "stay logged in" box, are you checking it?

What browser. What OS?

MikeSchinlaub · 2026-08-04T17:13:24-0600

Yes, the box is checked, duckduckgo browser, android os.

That is what it says in the address bar.

It's no big deal if it's just an issue for me. Just a tad inconvenient.

At work the SuperHelpfulIT department has our computers dump cookies and logins daily

On the phone, there was an OS update the other day and some things are now wonky

I haven't had an issue on my phone or either laptop.

I've recently encountered a gateway page that asks me to click a HERE button to get to the forum.

Last time I had this happen (another forum) clearing cache, permissions and cookies completely corrected the issue.

I'm not seeing an inner website change option to help with the keep me log in features to this website but in the past of similar issues it has often been found too where the web browser for certain websites one uses accidentally got changed over into In-Private-Window Mode where while in private window mode, the system will automatically keep logging you out in short time frames.

A quick online search suggests it may be called DuckDuckGo android privacy browser mode. Try changing window settings for this site.
