Hi there! Thanks for reaching out. I understand that when you try to log in to the Remind app using Google, nothing happens. Just to clarify, are you using the Remind app on your Windows 10 device through a browser, or is this happening in a separate app? Also, are you seeing any messages, or does it simply not respond when you click the Google login option?

Meanwhile, one common cause for Google login not working in Remind is using an unsupported or outdated browser. Since you mentioned using WebKit on Windows 10, it’s worth checking if your browser is fully supported by Remind. Sometimes, security restrictions can block Google login from working.

Here’s a step-by-step approach to try:

1. Ensure Your Browser is Supported and Updated
- Check that your WebKit-based browser (like Safari or another) is updated to the latest version.
- Alternatively, try logging in using a popular supported browser like Google Chrome, Firefox, or Microsoft Edge on your Windows PC.

2. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies
- Go to your browser settings and clear the cache and cookies, especially related to Remind and Google accounts. This helps remove any corrupt session data blocking login.

3. Allow Pop-Ups and Redirects for Remind and Google
- Sometimes, login windows open in pop-ups or new tabs. Make sure your browser is not blocking pop-ups from Remind or Google.

4. Try Incognito/Private Mode
- Open an incognito/private browsing window and attempt the Google login. This mode disables extensions and uses a clean session, helpful if a browser extension is interfering.

5. Check Your Google Account Security Settings
- If Google warns that the app is trying to access sensitive info and blocks it, you might need to allow permissions explicitly or check your Google account’s security alerts.

If these steps don’t resolve the issue, let me know, and we can dig deeper, including checking for any known service outages or advanced account-related issues.

Are you comfortable trying these steps? And did I get your setup right for the environment you’re using?
