Original Pull Request: https://github.com/bitwarden/android/pull/6545

State: closed
Merged: Yes

📔 Objective

When a refresh token expires or becomes invalid, the app was performing
a hard logout which completely removed the account from the account list.
This caused users to be automatically switched to another account and
forced them to re-add their server URL and account details.

This change uses softLogout() instead of logout() when token refresh
fails, which:

  • Keeps the account in the account switcher
  • Preserves PIN and vault timeout settings
  • Allows users to simply re-authenticate with their password
  • Prevents unexpected account switching

This fixes the issue where users with multiple accounts (especially
those with self-hosted instances on private VPN networks) would lose
access to their accounts after being offline for extended periods.

Fixes token refresh error handling for:

  • InvalidGrant (expired refresh token)
  • RefreshForbidden (403 response)
  • RefreshUnauthorized (401 response)
