3800554 - ios: mfa via Microsoft entra id hangs and does not return to the app; desktop/android work (joule work mobile)

Symptom

  • On iOS devices, MFA-based authentication via Microsoft Entra ID in SAP Joule Work Mobile does not complete; after successful MFA in Entra ID, the app appears to hang waiting for the response.
  • Desktop and Android scenarios work with both basic and MFA-based authentication.
  • On iOS, only basic authentication works; the MFA flow instructs the user to continue in Microsoft Edge, while the app appears to handle the response in a different browser component.
  • Setting Microsoft Edge as the default browser does not resolve the issue.
  • Authenticating directly in Microsoft Edge does not complete the flow for the app.
