Hi, when I try to login to the PayPal app on my Pixel 6 running Android 13 with 2FA enabled the app doesn't throw up any error messages but simply kicks me back to the Username/Password screen over and over. If I disable 2FA in the browser and delete/reinstall the app, it works and logs in. If I then re-enable 2FA in the browser, I can't login, even after clearing the data/cache and uninstalling and reinstalling the app. My username/password are definitely correct as they are saved in my password manager and work for the website. I've tried to change my password but still have the same issue. I have also tried giving the PayPal app every available permission in Android but there's no change - simply can't get past the Username/Password prompt.
