I have the same issue. I'm using Brave: 0.61.51 Chromium: 73.0.3683.75 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Linux.

I use Keep all day, so having it be disabled is an unfortunate impediment to me being able to use the Brave browser exclusively.

rebron · 2019-03-15T16:16:42Z

Might be fixed with the social networking landing in 64.x. Let's test this out again when that fix lands.

dinoboy197 · 2019-03-16T21:52:58Z

Thanks @rebron ! Will watch this issue for updates.

It's not specific to Google Keep, it happens when using Google Sign-in oauth on any 3rd party site.

Fix for me: Enabling all cookies, then clearing all history/cache/cookies. Attempt to log in again.
I had already disabled shields on both the 3rd party site and the Google signin popup window.
Then I changed it back to disabling only cross-site cookies. Still working until the next time I need to login.

I'm having problems since this change. I was logged out of all google accounts. When I logged in to gmail and google apps accounts, everything worked fine. But when I tried logging into my university alumni account, which has separate authentication, I was properly redirected, logged in, did 2FA, but when redirected to Google, was asked to "reconfirm it was me", I clicked the button but it said there was an error. Also, google drive sync crashed and logged me out. What to do?

Thanks for the feedback @foodfan - I'm investigating the issue that you're running into. Will post updates here.

bsclifton · 2020-08-28T19:16:21Z

@foodfan (love the name) - just to confirm, you're on Beta or Nightly? This code hasn't reached Release (1.13) channel yet

foodfan · 2020-08-28T19:38:59Z

Haha, thanks.

Hope that helps

foodfan · 2020-08-31T12:47:15Z

Seems like this was a cookie problem. To fix, I deleted all "google" cookies and re-logged in to my primary (gmail), google apps, and finally alumni account. Note: I did not log out of the extension (not sure if it's a separate cookie or not) but it continued working. I was also able to authenticate Google Backup & Sync. Everything seems to be working now. Thanks for the responsiveness to this and for making Keep work.

jumde · 2020-08-31T15:54:22Z

Thanks for the update @foodfan , if you run into any additional issues let us know. 👍

dsg38 · 2020-09-16T03:37:17Z

In case any one else is stuck at the same point - emphasising part of @GeetaSarvadnya post - it's essential that that Allow Google login for extensions has been enabled in settings. As this was blocking it for me and clicking 'sign in' on the keep extension did not prompt this setting request

jtnydv · 2021-02-08T18:10:54Z

Still facing this issue and none of the suggested solutions works.

When I enable Allow Google login for extensions I keep getting the Google login screen and the extension doesn't work.
Can anyone suggest any workaround for this?

jumde · 2021-02-08T19:39:47Z

Thanks for the report @jtnydv - I verified that this is a regression. Tracking the issue here: #14041 - Will try to resolve this soon.

JoseJuanSE · 2021-04-21T21:16:49Z

I allowed google login for extensions, now when I push sign in button, I get redirected to google login, after I logged, I'm again in the same place. Google keep is still asking me for log in.

nickgroverx · 2021-04-25T01:18:54Z

I did these two and it worked for me:

Allow google login for extensions, and
Allow all cookies.

matthughes404 · 2021-04-27T16:07:32Z

After updating to the latest Brave version (and enabling the 'Allow Google login for extensions' setting), the Google Keep extension is working properly for me.

Version 1.23.73 Chromium: 90.0.4430.85 (Official Build) (64-bit)

KharmaScribbles · 2023-02-06T00:51:52Z

Best fix and best extension for Google Loyalists is just use https://apps.jeurissen.co/black-menu-for-google extension, when I installed Brave and asked it to import my extensions from Chrome, all my extensions worked from the get-go and all google apps work within the black-menu-for-google extension.
