Still crashing...

[dmamira]

on iOS 14 Public Beta 2, it seems to be working fine.

[TheAlexLichter]

seems to be fixed now, the FB bug report is here:
developers.facebook.com/support/bugs/329763701368293

And the status on it:

yup, working again!

Please, open a PR fixing it or thumbs up the post and wait for a fix. Spam with +1s will not fix it faster.

[thienphuoc]

@@ This is the serious bug. Could the facebook team help us resolve this issue ?

[conorot]

Here's a permanent fix:

1. Open Xcode
2. Select your project
3. Look at the top middle
4. Select Swift Package Manager menu
5. Find Facebook Package - remove

[pouyakary]

This is ironic 🙂

[thienphuoc]

crash all apps integrated facebook sdk such as Tinder, PUBG ,Tiktok....

[pingwinator]

so many crashes that Firebase Crashlytics can't process all of then
I have 503 error

[BrentMifsud]

Best solution:

Remove the Facebook SDK, use their auth API to perform the Facebook login instead.

unless you use Facebook for other analytics.

[DanBurkhardt]

You all know Facebook is doing some new shady business under the hood, like how they got their dev certs revoked last year by Apple for abusing the enterprise program and spying on kids.

You all should be cautious of what methods they are swizzilng, you can’t trust Zucc!

[pradipaub36]

It seems like they have fixed the issue

Best solution:

unless you use Facebook for other analytics.

Will Facebook allow using web API for login instead of their SDKs?

[pradipaub36]

"We identified the issue quickly and resolved it. "

Do we require to update the SDK for that?

Their API Is meant for web browser login but you could theoretically do it with a WKWebView.

Do I need to update the SDK to the latest version to resolve this issue? the current SDK version is 7.0.0

ppl really complaining about an open source project? How toxic is the ios community

Damn.. if you think that was toxic, just wait until you find out what Facebook did to our democracy.

[josephlord]

For Facebook login there are instructions on doing it Framework free here:
https://dev.to/marinbenc/implementing-facebook-login-on-ios-without-facebook-sdk-3k05

I also implemented this at the weekend to make a near drop replacement for login only:
https://github.com/josephlord/FMZDropInMinimalFacebookLogin

[ethanhuang13]

@josephlord I've done a similar thing the last time. I should remind that this violates FB's Platform Policy.

https://gist.github.com/ethanhuang13/70c27ea9b5eb53199bc67c3bc9d47b7b

[artud2000]

The fix on my end was

[FBSDKSettings setAutoLogAppEventsEnabled:NO];

[narlei]

For me, the best solution was create Framework wrappers and control it by feature flag.
