Comment (by oferlaor):

 Just upgraded production to 6.8.1, behavior is different between 6.8 and
 6.8.1!

 **WHILE the mobile app is running**, wp-admin keeps trying to redirect me
 to the profile page (it sometimes gets in a loop, trying to redirect the
 profile page into itself).

 I exit the mobile app (kill the process), I can at least work. I still see
 the 403 error on:

 /wp-json/wp/v2/users/me?context=edit&_locale=user
 /wp-json/wp/v2/types?context=view&_locale=user


 BUT once I exit the mobile app, the same REST API call work correctly and
 get a 200.

 as soon as I go back into the mobile app, the desktop side

 /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php will reply with
 {{{
 302, location: /wp-admin/profile.php
 }}}


 with tons of cookies, but at the end, there's
 {{{
 X-Redirect-By: WordPress
 }}}


 again, once I exit the app, opening the /wp-admin/edit.php redirects
 **once** to wp-admin/profile.php and after refreshing again, it works
 correctly...

 So, it's not even that I have to logout, it's like I can't have both
 running simultaneously.

 About the clean site. I don't have a server or place to install it on, so
 I can't test the flow on a clean WP site.

 Hope this is useful.
