Question

I have been locked out of the mobile app saying it does not accept new sign-ups. How do I get past this screen? I am not a new user.

Why is my mobile app not recognizing me as a long-time user.

When the application is not fully functional, one of the causes is the app's data, @stu14. To isolate this, resetting the app is an effective solution, similar to clearing your browser’s cache. Here’s how to do it:
 
For iOS
 
  1. Go to Settings and tap General.
  2. Click iPhone Storage, then select the QuickBooks Self-Employed app.
  3. Tap Offload App. This will free up the storage without deleting your app's documents and data.
 
For Android
 
  1. Go to the Menu ☰ icon and tap More Options ⋮.
  2. Click on Settings, then Refresh Data.
  3. Select YES to confirm.
 
Once done, restart your device and reopen your QBSE mobile app to double-check.
 
Once the reset is complete, restart your device and reopen the QBSE mobile app to check if the issue is resolved.
 
Alternatively, you can access your QuickBooks Self-Employed account using your phone’s browser. This bypasses app-related issues and ensures you can continue managing your account.
