When I implement OAuth in iPhone, I have a dilemma to choose Safari or UIWebView to open the Twitter pages for user authentication?
I write some advantage and disadvantage of both case:
Using UIWebWeb. The disadvantage is users have to enter their credentials in our application. It’s maybe risky phishing. The advantage is this approach will not quit our app.
Using Safari for user to authenticate (this approach automatically callbacks to our application) Addvantage: less risky. Disadvantage: have to quit our app
A good reference link about this: http://fireeagle.yahoo.net/developer/documentation/oauth_best_practice
Which approach do you prefer?
Any response is appreciate. Thanks.
For the best user experience with destop and mobile application, we should use xAuth:
