Android Facebook Integration #35

Closed astutesoftware closed 10 years ago

astutesoftware commented 10 years ago

I just noticed that when other apps do a native facebook integration the user is just presented with a single dialog asking if they want to share their details. http://s17.postimg.org/pwk8bx0vz/otherapps.png

With the same default permissions using the plugin i find that it actually loads up facebook and shows a complete dialog with the permissions. http://s7.postimg.org/ha2jmh4cr/ourplugin.png

Is this by design? Is anyone else facing the same issue?

Read and write permissions should be presented to the user separately so that the user can choose to accept the former and reject the latter if he wants. This is how Facebook wants and actually what is better for the end user.

By the way, we are using native sdk integration with Facebook, your other example is plain ugly and wrong in my opinion :)

Well i wouldn't want to argue on it. This is so far the best bug free plugin ever and i pretty much like it compared to the official plugin which went out to do everything and got not even a single thing right :)

What i meant to say was if the sdk is the same how is the dialog different. The only good part about the UGLY method was that it neatly overlays a transparent layer on top our app and the user doesn't feel that he is leaving the app for facebook authorization.

I am not sure how it works on other people's app. On my phone i get a white screen. couple of seconds a spinner spins and then the permission dialog appears.

The UGLY method however just quickly pops up the question. Not sure if its the right thing for the end user, as a app developer i would be concerned with my conversion rate on the dialog as to how many people see the dialog and how many authorize the permissions.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

This plugin rocks!

On a side note, are you sure you are trying on same device? Afaik, that pop up is displayed when you have Facebook app in your device installed and associated with your account. I remember seeing it too (with the plugin).
