Slack conversation: @

Action Performed:

Prerequisites: User must be logged into web app as User A.

1. Launch the Desktop app
2. Enter an email for an existing or new account
3. Go to the email inbox and locate the magic code
4. Copy the Magic link and modify it to staging
5. On the web, open a new tab and navigate to the staging magic link
6. Confirm that the user is prompted to open the desktop app
7. Click on the "Open app" option
8. Repeat steps 5,6 and 7
9. When the apps get opened, click on ''just sign in here ''button

Expected Result:

The user should be able to sign in right after clicking on ''Just sign in here,'' and they should also have the option to exit the page.

Actual Result:

When the desktop app is launched using the magic code deep link, the user encounters an expired magic code page even though the code is valid and has not been previously used. Additionally, it's impossible to exit that screen.

Workaround:
