Research direction
Start by locating the authentication-expiration handler and the error toast that mentions refreshing the page. Confirm how TT currently handles an expired session, then determine whether the intended outcome is a restart-and-sign-in message or automatic logout with the login dialog. Done means expired sessions no longer show browser-specific wording and the selected recovery flow is covered by the relevant test or manual check.

Description
Problem
When authentication expires, TT displays error toast below:
TT should avoid talking about refreshing the page : this makes sense in a browser but not in TT.
Solution
-
Today the only solution for user is to exit and restart TT. So a better message would be:
Try restart the app and signing in again -
Even better, TT should cleanly disconnect user and display login dialog.
