Description

While I try to login to Google Tasks, it just appears the option to add an account (As if there wasn't any account logged in from Device Settings). And when I can login, the apps start loading and never stops.
When I install WhatsApp and try to recover my backup from Google Drive, it just appears the option to add an account (As in Google Tasks). When I finally login (From the Add Account option, not from Settings) it gets me to the same pop-up of before (Just Add Account option).

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Google Tasks sign-in flow and WhatsApp Google Drive backup restore flow described in the issue, comparing device accounts with the in-app Add Account path. Done means existing device accounts are recognized and both sign-in and backup recovery can proceed without returning to the Add Account prompt.
