    Going to need more details. Need to know if this is a regression or not. What's the Ti SDK, xCode and Facebook modules version.

    Details provided above. Also create a native application following the Facebook docs best practice: https://www.dropbox.com/s/covkst64flicd9x/test.zip?dl=0 It behaves the same, so either we are missing something or the native app-switch is currently broken in the Facebook SDK.

    As discussed in this thread, it seems like Facebook wants to use the Safari Dialog ("browser") behavior by default, even when we set the fb.LOGIN_BEHAVIOR_NATIVE which was exposed in MOD-2242. So it's a Facebook "issue" which is being looked into on their side. For now, we can close this issue and leave it for further reference.
