Hello!

I’m developing a website that will use Facebook as an authentication method. However, instead of using the web dialog, I would like to use Facebook’s native dialogue on Android (or iOS).

I looked into whether that was possible, and in the few places where I found the answer it seems there’s no way to do that. But the answers are a little old and I think that maybe with the growth of Pwas maybe this is possible today.

Anyway, using a Progressive Web App, is it possible to do what I want? If not, is there any prediction that this might exist in the future? Webintents have something to do with this?

Hello!

The Intents are native applications activations through another native application. The Webintents are actions performed from one site to others, without this one having to leave the site where the activation was performed.

What you would need is to activate the (native) intents, I tried to accomplish something similar, but I did not continue in the project, however it has a interesting link where the author performs a case according to what you want.

It is important to note that Progressive Web Apps are growing and will likely perform better interactions than hacks to achieve native functions, however for now you may run into some obstacles and may have to opt for web rather than native interactions.
