In my iOS app, I have used FacebookSDK and sharing features. For that I have included permission for publish_actions at login time. As per Facebook guideline you have to submit your app for review if you are using FacebookSDK.
So I have submitted my application for Facebook review along with simulator build, some descriptions, screencast (video or images) for how app is posted on Facebook. But Facebook rejects my app and I can’t identify reason.
It shows reason is cant get item 1 of {}. Any one have any idea why build is rejected and how Facebook review apps.
I faced same issue, when I have uploaded app for Facebook review it rejected two times. Here are couple of things you should look on them :
Login on Facebook for Developers
Go to App Review from left panel
From above screen shot click on first edit notes
Check respective check box as per your requirements.
Select one option from radio buttons as per your requirements.
Add step by step description of How your app use FacebookSDK here also include credentials (Facebook username and password which does not used before) for testing.
At last upload video as screencast (Your application video how it works with Facebook and you have to show how it look on your timeline on Facebook)
Click on Save.
Now from above screen shot click on second edit notes
Add test user if you want to add.
Select different build, upload build (which built with simulator) there and save.
Now hit on Submit For Review
Then also if any case you get rejected, Click on Green Have Question button. Add manager as your app name and select, then ask question to support team that what is the problem with your build and what is reason for reject. They will reply and you will find solution.
The goal is to use facebook share button.
"App Not Setup: This app is still in development mode, and you don't have access to it. Switch to a registered test user or ask an app admin for permissions."
This is a message when I want to login with other than my app account. When I login with my app account I can use the button otherwise not. Is it because I use test apps delails? When I use my original website app id it gives the same message. In settings it is available to public. Test application is in development mode, it doesnt change to available to public. Should I remove test version or?
Thanks in advance.
Your application is in development and no one user can use this application except developers and organizers. You can see list of all people who can use your app at menu item "Roles" at application dashboard. To make your application available to other people make next steps:
Go to app dashboard at facebook -> Settings -> set contact email -> App Review -> swith first slider to YES position.
After this manipulations other people can login to your app correctly.
What does "development mode" mean for a facebook app? I find no exact explanation of what I can and can't do while in development mode and what's the relation with the "Not available to all users because your app is not live".
Some people also refer to it as "Sandbox mode" so I have a lot of confusion between "development mode", "sandbox mode", "live vs not available to general public"
I know its a little bit late but someone may find this useful in future.
STEP 1:
Login to facebook Developer -> Your App
In Settings -> Basic -> Contact Email. (Give any email)
STEP 2:
And in 'App Review' Tab : change
Do you want to make this app and all its live features available to the general public? Yes
And you app will be live now ..
Click app review and Turn on the Make your app Public toggle. Save changes
This problem occurs when we set our app as unavailable to the public.
STEP 1
Open Facebook developer account
https://www.facebook.com/login/?next=https%3A%2F%2Fdevelopers.facebook.com%2Fdocs%2Ffacebook-login%2Fios
STEP 2
Select your application
STEP 3
Click the app Review tab.
Change switch value no to yes. See picture below.
After this your app is live.
Development mode is for testing
Go to https://developers.facebook.com/apps, then App Review -> Select No for Your app is in development and unavailable to the public
Go to Roles -> Testers, enter the Facebook user Id of the users you want to enable testing
Follow these basic steps to fix this problem,
Step 1: Go to Dashboard,
Step 2: Go to "App Review" tab,
Step 3: Enable the "Make test public?" option, Like Below image,
I had also faced the same issue in which my FB app was automatically stopped and users were not able to login and were getting the message "app is in development mode.....".
Reason why FB automatically stopped my app was that I had not provided a valid PRIVACY policy & terms URL. So, make sure you enter these URLs on your app basic settings page and then make your app PUBLIC from app review page as described in above posts.
in your app dashboard check status to on
for testing purposes only you could Go to your facebook developer dashboard.
create your app then in the top left corner open the apps dropdown menu and click create test app take the app ID and use instead.
I have the same problem while integrating the Facebook SDK for login.
I'm suggesting below approach for development mode > you can test all things if you are login with same account, which is used for 'developers.facebook.com' and if you want to use another accounts then you need to add Roles for that particular app, for that you can add developer or testers by using fid or facebook username.
Eg: - Select the particular app > Roles and then add developer or testers.
I implemented 'Login using facebook' for my site.
To do so I created an app in facebook and registered it.
The app was sent for review and approval status came as 'live'.
But it also had the following message
"Your App Detail page is live and available in search. Your app does not have enough high ratings and user engagement to be approved for listing in the App Center at this time. Please view our App Centre Guidelines for more information"
The app is still in sandbox mode and unless i get out of sandbox the login feature can't be functional in the site.How do we fix this?
Edit your app settings!
On your App Dashboard, click the "Edit settings" link and set Sandbox Mode to off.
I submitted my app details on Facebook, and received the following notice:
Your app's main functionality lives off canvas. Please either choose
to host your app on canvas or remove this integration as a listed
platform in the dev app.
What integration platform is this referring to? Is it the App on Facebook integration that I have checked on the Basic app details page?
To check your settings, go to http://developers.facebook.com, click on "Apps" in the blue menu up top, click on your app in the left-navigation, click on "Edit Settings" in the Settings section. Scroll down to the "Select how your app integrates with Facebook" section.
If you have selected Canvas, a green checkbox will appear next to "App on Facebook". Make sure that "App on Facebook" is NOT selected unless you are actually building a Canvas app.
What is a Canvas app? For more information, consult the Facebook documentation on Canvas apps: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/canvas/
