I am trying to develop a non-web application (mobile, non-mobile) for consuming information from Foursquare.
I would like to have the user authenticated by entering a valid username and password and accessing his account using this authentication.
Is this possible? From what I’ve read, it seems the only way to access Foursquare is by using OAuth, which is not what I had in mind.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

I believe OAuth is your only option if you plan on using the Foursquare api. You can read about Foursquare’s Authorization here https://developer.foursquare.com/overview/auth
