Answer 1

I usually provide SessionService at bootstrap (and not with providers: []) to make sure you share one global SessionService instance throughout the entire app.

bootstrap(AppComponent,
            [SessionService]);

Answer 2

It seems like you have multiple instances of SessionService. e.g. you provided it more than once and the instance that you call signin in is not the same instance as the one you injected in NavbarComponent.

It depends on your project design how you provide your services. Usually session services are singletons.
I recommend removing providers: [SessionService], from NavbarComponent.
