Facebook rejects the implementation of the official Phonegap Facebook plugin.
Did it by the book, login, posting works. Explained it's Phonegap (v3.0), and it's using their native SDK, but got rejected two times without any explanation except the info below.
Your Android app must use the native Login dialog that comes with Facebook's SDKs instead of custom web views. Ensure you have successfully tested your Facebook Login integration for Single Sign On or remove this integration as a listed platform in the developer app.
Here are the full details
Please advise. Thx!

following the microsoft examples as documented here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/data-cloud/authentication/azure-cosmosdb-auth
Everything is fine up to the point where I run the xamarin forms app to log in using facebook to get a token.
The error from the emulator when I try to login is this:
For your account security, logging in to Facebook from an embedded browser is disabled. To continue, download and log in to Facebook app on your device and try again.
I have tried downloading the app on the emulator, but that makes no difference, my facebook app is in development state but even then it should at least get me to the login page and allow using a test user.
It seems that facebook stopped supporting android login using embedded browsers from 5 October 2021. See here:
https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2021/06/28/deprecating-support-fb-login-authentication-android-embedded-browsers/
Would it be possible to please update the sample with either b2c or with an alternate method or details of how to get facebook auth working again?
If anyone have examples that someone new to these concepts could follow that would be great.
Thanks in advance!
We're trying to implement deep links in facebook ads. Everything works fine when we open ad link in facebook app: if our app is curretly installed then facebook app launches our app and passes the deep link into it. Also if our app is not installed and we open ad link in facebook app then it redirects to AppStore and we recieve deferred deep link from facebook inside our app.
But when we try to reproduce all these scenarios using facebook browser version, none of the cases are working (neither deep link nor deferred deep link)
Is it possible at all to make deep links work in web environment?
Finally I've asked Facebook support and received the answer:
Deep link is designed to work in apps only. It doesn't work with a
browser. Please don't worry because it's working as expected!

I'm developing a 2nd version of our app for Facebook Messenger to meet their new platform integration requirements described here:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger
I'm attempting to allow both apps to share the same Facebook App ID. This page from the iOS troubleshooting docs has a section on Sharing an app ID across Apps
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/ios/troubleshooting#testsharedialog
It shows you how to add URL Scheme Suffixes to your apps so that they can both live on the same phone yet share the same Facebook App ID.
I've done this and it works successfully so that both apps can use Facebook login without stepping on each others toes. However, it seems that doing so broke my integration with FB messenger, which was previously working.
After following the instructions on the troubleshooting link above and adding the fields for the URL Scheme suffix, the videos I send to FB messenger no longer have a Reply button on them. Media inside Messenger that was sent from my app no longer contains any tappable element that takes you back to my app.
Does anyone know if there's a way to get the URL Scheme Suffix working in a way that it still works with the new Messenger Platform?
Thanks!
Heard back from Facebook directly on this. Their response:
No it doesn't. Because we will try to open the scheme without suffix. How would we know which suffix you want to open from messenger? ... So no suffixes are not supported. Just use a different app id.
I'm new using facebook for developers, I want to use Facebook Login for my app developed in phonegap, where I want that when users want to login, it opens facebook standard page for them to continue with the process and return data to my app. But the first thing I found was that there were many solutions:
The Login Flow for iOS
The Login Flow for Android
The Login Flow for Web (without JavaScript SDK)
But none for what I want. I also found facebook github's solutions but, it seems to be only for Android or iOs, but not both of them:
https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-facebook-plugin
So I have some doubts:
¿What solution should I use for phonegap integration?
I know that I need an app-id that I can find it at facebook's developers page https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/login-flow-for-web-no-jssdk/ , but if that key is locally saved, at the devices, would it be safe?
Thanks
I would like to develop an IOs app with facebook integrated.
However, after some research I found out that facebook connect seem to be outdated?
Even the facebook official page only talk about Single Sign On where user will be redirect away the app to login.
So my question is, do you think it's still safe to use Facebook Connect?
Since i still see a lot app using it.
Yes Facebook connect for iOS has been replaced with Facebook SDK for iOS and it is an open source library on Github that users their Graph API. I would not start a new project with the deprecated Facebook connect library because it will eventually be killed and they won't give you a lot of notice since the replacement has already been out for over a year.
