Has Google pushed an update to their OAuth2.0 flow that breaks multiple accounts?

Tags:

oauth

Up until last week, when ever I was logged into multiple accounts in Google and I invoked the OAuth2.0 flow I would get to an ugly screen (looked like it had been hit repeatedly with the ugly stick) that was functional. It would display a list of radio buttons with all the accounts I am logged in as, you select the one and continue through the flow.

This week I now get a beautiful screen that is non-functional (does not list accounts and the signin button only adds an additional account to the list of accounts I am signed in as) I should point out that I am logged into 4 different Google accounts at the same time. The OAuth2.0 for my app appears to be working fine as if I start an in-cognito window in Chrome, or start a new session and only have one account logged in, my OAuth flow continues normally.

Is this just me or is everyone hit by it?

FYI, we just rolled out the new UI, so you may begin to see the "beautiful screen" that is now functional. :-) Thanks for the bug report.

We're also experiencing this. Hope someone at Google takes note and gets this fixed soon!

EDIT: To clarify, I've only experienced the problem when logged into both a personal Google account AND a Google apps account. Haven't tested other situations at present.
