Description

Summary

I'm experiencing an issue where Expo Snack keeps showing a message on the top left of the page "Log in to save your changes as you work" although I'm already logged in to my account! I have been facing this issue since last week.

Steps I have tried:
-Cleared browser cache and cookies
-Used incognito/private browser mode
-tried multiple browsers (e.g., Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Firefox)
-Logged out and logged in back
-Confirmed I'm logged into the correct Expo account

Environment:
-Browser: Microsoft Edge 138.0
-OS: Windows 10 Enterprise

Let me know if there is a fix for this or if it's a known issue. Thanks!
