Cannot connect new Thingy53 to iPhone 17

After installing the latest nRF Edge on iphone 17 pro with the latest software, immediately after login i get this error - iOS_Common_Libraries.BasicHTTPResponse error 1

after this i can see the project and the Thingy but clicking it does nothing and it is not added to the project.

some more details:

  • Fresh install of nRF Edge Impulse 1.0.7
  • iPhone 17 Pro, latest iOS
  • Log in with valid email/password 
  • nRF Connect can discover the Thingy:53
  • Edge Impulse Studio works normally in Safari

I tried logging out and in again, restarting the phone, deleting the project and creating a new one, different network, vpn and cellular
