Not redirecting during account linking

My account linking page does couple of redirections to populate some cookies. During this process, only on Alexa app when i do "sign into your account", it is getting struck on that page after logging in. On a normal browser, it works. Is there anyway to fix this? Is that webview on Alexa app which needs to be fixed?

In Android, a new browser window is opening when redirection happens and it gets struck in browser. Anyone knows if Amazon is planning a fix for this bug?

The issue was even sub domains are blocked and need to be added in the Skill portal in the domain list.

I have added some external domains to the domain list, but these domains are still blocked. Without redirecting to external services I cannot create an access token.

In the browser under alexa.amazon.de it works perfect.

Please help and thanks.
