VLC iOS & iPadPS Can't Connect to Google Drive

Hi, when trying to connect to Google Drive on last VLC version, and choosing my Google account, I'm getting an error:
Sign in with Google temporarily disabled for this app
This app has not been verified yet by Google in order to use Google Sign in.
I checked with my friends and they're experiencing this problem as well.
Please fix this issue as for now users can't connect to Google Drive from the VLC app.
Same bug on iOS 13.2 & iPadOS 13.2, VLC version 3.2.2

Yesterday version 3.2.3 was released and the Google Drive login problem is still there
When should it be fixed?

I handed the app in for review last week and Google is still processing it.

Update: the app was approved 30mins ago, so this issue should be permanently resolved now.

Hello everyone!

vlc 3.0.7 and today update to curent version 3.2.6
same problem on both version(https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=150069):
Error
“Cannot open page: Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid.”
after login and making permission to VLC for iPad
If the problem in the restrictions of the old version of iOS?
Maybу there is an option to log-in to google on computer and copypaste authorization token somewhere to VLC on iPad?

It appears that the trick @goga1 mentions breaks with the most recent update. It works until the recently released version 3.3.8. Any reason for this? Any fix also? This probably only applies to old iOS versions. Sign-in doesn't appear to work at all, it just redirects to the homepage of Google.
