Recently Facebook has deprecated ‘offline_access’. But, I find that Instagram app for Android still uses that. How could that be possible? I am developing an app that would authenticate the user from mobile and use that permission later to post to user’s wall from server (according to user’s actions)
you can still pass ‘offline_access’ part of authentication process and wont gett any specific errors, in any case Facebook will return you a short-lived token.
on the other hand, you can extend the short-lived token into 60days one,
see scenario.4 under https://developers.facebook.com/roadmap/offline-access-removal/
example;
https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?client_id=APP_ID&client_secret=APP_SECRET&grant_type=fb_exchange_token&fb_exchange_token=EXISTING_ACCESS_TOKEN
