When using OpenClaw, the most frustrating blockers usually aren’t the features themselves, but small issues like login problems, verification codes, failed requests, and usage-limit displays. Below is a practical, follow-along FAQ covering the most common high-frequency questions in OpenClaw—so you can take fewer detours and avoid repeated trial-and-error.
Can’t log in or getting logged out часто? Check these three things first
Q: OpenClaw opens, but it keeps saying “Not logged in” / “Session expired”?In most cases, this happens because browser cache issues, third-party cookies being blocked, or an unstable network causes the session to expire. Try logging into OpenClaw in an incognito/private window first, then make sure your browser allows site cookies, and disable extensions that might block scripts (such as aggressive privacy or ad blockers).
Q: Does switching the same account across multiple devices cause logouts?It’s recommended to keep one primary device for OpenClaw, and use other devices only for temporary viewing when possible. If you must switch, log out on the old device before logging in on the new one to reduce session conflicts.
Not receiving the verification code: it’s not as simple as “just wait”
Q: What if I never receive the OpenClaw verification code?First check your mobile signal and whether your SMS inbox is full or blocked by security software. Then confirm you didn’t accidentally enable an SMS blacklist or keyword filtering. If resending multiple times still doesn’t work, wait a few minutes before trying again—otherwise you may trigger risk controls that temporarily limit OpenClaw’s sending.
Q: The code says it’s wrong, but I just received it—why?Common reasons include extra spaces being entered automatically, the code expiring, or mixing up old and new codes after tapping “Send” multiple times. Keep only the latest SMS and enter that one carefully—this usually resolves the issue in OpenClaw.
