I am implementing a web application that requires Facebook integration. How do I get my application to open the Facebook login screen when the user clicks a button?
There's an open-source BlackBerry Facebook SDK: http://sourceforge.net/projects/facebook-bb-sdk/ which is used by quite a few commercial products. Good place to start.

Currently i am using the Facebook SDK to implement the Facebook login to our native iOS application. For this i am using the native iOS SDK for Facebook. This application is both for mobile and web, so is it possible to integrate Facebook login without using the SDK from application side. I mean authentication done fully through API and server side.
Please have a suggestion.
I referred to a SO link:
Design for Facebook authentication in an iOS app that also accesses a secured web service
Sure! You can always use their API directly, which essentially is the same as they do with the SDK.
Check out the documentation on the following link.

I recently downloaded "Linkedin Groups" and "Linkedin Sales Navigator" on iOS and the login experience was great.
When I loaded up the app (Linkedin Groups), the first onboarding screen already knew who I was and presented me with an option that had my Linkedin Profile Photo and said "Continue as Anthony".
I am curious to know how Linkedin does this and if we have the ability to create this feature as well? I'm assuming they were able to pull (my avatar and name) from my already installed native Linkedin app (the regular Linkedin app)?
I am currently building an app and will be using Linkedin SDK for Login Auth but can't seem to find where I can access this information "pre-auth" of my app.
Any thoughts? Or can only Linkedin do this because they "own" both apps?
Thanks!
i'm created a IOS app in Xcode7 using swift , and now i am trying to integrate LinkedIn authentication to login into my iOS app.
So i created a account and application in LinkedIn developer site..
But my requirement is to use the same LinkedIn application account to login into my all iOS apps.is it possible?
i heard about deep linking concept.Any one know more about that?
Is it possible?
Yes it is. In your app preferences, go to Mobile > iOS preferences, then add the bundle ID of each app you want to be linked with LinkedIn.
Deep linking : Any one know more about that?
It allows you to bring users into a more specific part of your app that is not home page. For example, after opening a notification, you can bring user to a specific post into your app. That is an example of using deep links. Nevertheless, I don't think it is what you are searching for.
I'm fairly new to iOS Development and trying to use Facebook SDK for authentication for my app. I have done the integrations and whenever I click on the Login with Facebook button it opens a browser window in the app for authentication. How do I redirect the user to the inbuilt Facebook app which the user uses instead of a browser window if facebook is installed on the phone.
In iOS9 it is not possible switch with Facebook netive app .. For that you should try out other older version of Facebook sdk.
Please check below link.

I am developing a iOS application which allows users to login by using their Facebook account.
I managed to implement the login procedure thanks to official tutorial I found here https://github.com/facebook/facebook-ios-sdk. I found here https://developers.facebook.com/docs/tutorials/ios-sdk-tutorial/authenticate/ another tutorial which looks pretty different since in the first tutorial the user signs in through Safari, instead in the second tutorial the native Facebook App is used.
Among these two systems, which one is better? Perhaps by using Safari I could avoid any issue concerning back compatibility with older versions of iOS?
Thanks!
If you're using the official Facebook SDK, here's what happens:
If a user does have the Facebook app installed, they'll be taken to it to authenticate and login to your app.
If the user does not have the Facebook app installed, they'll be taken to Safari to authenticate and login to your app.
Either way, the login process is the same. After they authenticate, they're returned to your app using a specific URL scheme so that you can continue with what you're doing.
Finally, if you're targeting iOS 6 only, you can take advantage of the single sign on features built into iOS. Check the docs for more information on that.
