- The Push notification is not received.
- The Push notification reaches the mobile device with delays.
- After approving the Push, it takes a long time for the login to complete.
- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
- Okta Verify
- Okta Classic Engine
If Okta Verify Push Authentication does not work, but entering the 6-digit token works, then check the following:
- Confirm that the device's Date and Time are set to Network (or Automatic).
- The Okta Verify App may be set up on both the Work and Personal profiles of the phone. If so, remove it from both and reinstall where it is intended.
- (Android) Confirm that the background data usage is enabled under app settings for Okta Verify.
If this does not resolve the issue, make sure of the following:
- Ensure there is a stable network connection or mobile data connection by opening the mobile browser and navigating to the organization's Okta website. In this case, restarting the settings is recommended.
- Reboot the device.
- Ensure the device is not Jailbroken and does not have a custom security layer or other applications that could interfere with the delivery of notifications.
- Check if the mobile device is connected to a VPN; some VPN policies may block incoming TCP requests associated with OV Push.
If Push Authentication still does not work, please contact the organization's IT department for assistance.
