Hi All

I  have a working connection with PayPal Bank when using my windows pc. However when trying to make connection with the QB app on my android phone I get error 108. There is no message of any kind in my PayPal account.

Is it possible to have a working connection from both phone app and windows app?

Thanks in advance.

It's definitely possible to have both banking connection in the app and web version of QBO, Jim1954.

 

Although, it looks like this can either be an app or a mobile device issue since you mentioned that it's working on your Windows pc. I'll share some steps with you that can resolve common app issues. 

 

First, make sure to update both your mobile device OS and the QBO app itself.

 

Second, clear the app's data in your mobile device's settings.

 

Clearing the app's data can be done on the app or on your phone settings. The instructions are outlined below:

 

    • Android - From your phone's settings, select Apps (varies by device). Choose the QuickBooks app from the list and select Storage. Select clear data.
    • iOS - From your phone's settings, select Settings, then, click on General and choose iPhone Storage. Select an app that's taking up a lot of space. To free up the storage without deleting the documents and data for the app, select Offload App.
  •  

Once done, go back to your PayPal Bank and check if the connection is already working fine.

Thanks for reply. Unfortunately not working for me, cleared data still same error. Tried reinstalling app in my phone same error.

I get a message on screen that Quickbooks is talking to Paypal then message error 108. PC version works perfectly.

Hi Jim1954, thanks for testing that - are you connected to Paypal (for UK users) and do you experience the same error on the app on both mobile 4G and WiFi connection?
