How to login using Jerboa [Solved] (lemmy.ml)

I have a working account I access from my Linux machine using Firefox on Lemmy.ml, I can login there. The problem I am having is I just installed Jerboa on my Android phone and I can't seem to locate where to click to login or provide credentials so I can Lemmy on the go.

Where do I click to login on android Jerboa?

Hamburger menu in the upper-left -> Dropdown menu where it says "anonymous" -> Add account.

Yay! Sucess! Will my phone remember this credential now or will I have to enter it next time I return?

The credential gets saved, but there's a bug right now where you get randomly signed out every now and again. It was happening to be a couple times a day, though it seemed to chill out a bit with the latest release (for unknown reasons, the but wasn't fixed to my knowledge).

If you get half-signed-out as described in the post linked above, force-kill the app as I describe in my comment. When you restart it, you'll be signed in again. You won't have to retype the password if you kill the app or restart your phone.
