I noticed was it takes between 8-10 reCaptcha screens before it lets you proceed

You can try to make captcha less difficult in google interface where you generate the key&secret. Also in the future we plan to provide alternatives to google services.

So once I got past reCaptcha it sent me the email. Everytime I tried the link on the phone I got an error. 

I tried to reproduce it, but it works fine for me, could you please provide screenshot of the error ?

GREAT on anything that replaces a GOOGLE something. Wish didn't have to be LOCKED into DropBox for Jitsi.  Good job, and thanks guys and gals.
