Seems to me like Apple needs to intervene here. Even ignoring the privacy concerns, this is unjustifiable.

  Current position of Apple is if you're going to include the FBSDK Sign-In you have to include the Apple Sign-In button too. Removing FBSDK is also acceptable to Apple. So Apple have put out an incentive to their third party Devs while still giving some freedom.

    Do you really need the SDK for Facebook Login? It's just OAuth.
    • scottmf 6y ago
      Yes. FB will block your app for implementing FB sign in on iOS/Android without their SDK.

        Block you from where?
        • saagarjha 6y ago
          Connecting via OAuth, presumably.
    • mvanbaak 6y ago
      No you don't. Like you said, it's using standards you can implement without the SDK.

    Apple needs to promote a simple solution to switch your Spotify/whatever account from FB login to the privacy-focused Apple login. Obviously it would require app developers to implement, but Apple has a lot of power here.

      This is sort of already a feature coming to iOS 14, though it's really for switching an existing account to an Apple ID login, there's nothing technically stopping a developer from using it to switch a user from FB login connected account too.

        Oh that’s great, thank you. Hopefully Apple will take it a step further somehow.

      If an app provides 'login with <something>' the app now has to support 'login with apple' as well. They are not activly blocking apps that violate this rule, but soon they will.

      In our app we've already added a "Link your Apple ID" option to add Sign In With Apple to an existing account, it's easy enough to implement without any official support from Apple.
