Gear VR Pin Preventing me from logging into new account.

I have created an app and put a newly created account as one of the previewers. I have logged in and accepted this prewiew app. And now I want to go to the phone and boot up the gearVR app and make sure that the preview app is showing in the correct place. 

However when I try to log into the gear vr app in this newly created account. I encounter an a looping bug where it asks me to create a pin then confirm the pin with my password. Then when I confirm it, it loops me back to create a pin. This keeps looping like that forever. I have tried creating yet another account to see if this bug applies to all accounts and I can confirm that it does. It also applies to 5 different phones that I tested it on in the office. 

I was hoping someone would know a workaround so I could log in or if oculus could see this and release a patch.

Here are some screenshots:

This loop repeats until the end of time.

I spoke with customer service and found a workaround. If you create the pin on the Oculus website then restart the Oculus app it should work.
