Yes, I'm sure the #1 perk of gaining U.S. citizenship will be using the kiosks to check in for United flights to Canada! :)
A US Green Card, valid eTA, (and NEXUS, but I don't think this is essential) will allow a kiosk (and app) check-in to / from Canada on UA. Did it for 2 years; never an issue. When I converted to a US Citizen, nothing changed; I just scanned the new US passport on the app. I'm not exactly sure what's going on in your scenario, though (apologies). Now, in Canada TO the US on AC, I always needed an agent check-in until I became a US Citizen and it flows through nicely now. |

Not entirely correct. You don't have to be a US Citizen.

Would your former passport have required a visa for Canada?

Former passport requires an eTA - like a US Green Card holder. No visa.
It seems that UA's kiosks aren't sophisticated enough to understand that having a green card waives the visa requirement provided that an eTA is present. |
