The instructions on using Single Sign-On (SSO) with the Facebook IOS SDK are to save the access token and expiration date in fbDidLogin and use them on subsequent calls to avoid unnecessary logins.

But what if the user logs out of Facebook outside the app (e.g. in the Facebook app or in Safari)? The app doesn’t know about this, so it tries to use the saved token and expiration date, and to my surprise – they are still valid and the app can access the user’s data even though the user has logged out.

Any way around this?

    no, there is no way to do this. each FB login a user makes is specific to the client they logged in with. A FB login is not universal across all clients. The FB token you get from the SDK is a token for that user with your app. So if a user logs out of FB in their browser or another app, they have not logged of FB from your app so the token will remain valid until it expires or the app or user explicitly logs out from the context of your app.

    Not sure why you are concerned about this. Generally you would want your users to remain logged in. If you have a reason you don’t want this don’t request “offline_access” permission when you authorize a FB user and you can also logout and de-authorize the user via the FB API based on whatever criteria you deem appropriate.
