Hello,
Initially i tried to use this library https://github.com/jsauve/OAuthTwoDemo.XForms/ but the problem was that the Library opened a WebView with mobile Facebook Login, and the user was forced to insert every time facebook username and password.
Instead with my solution my app open native facebook login page and if can't find Facebook App installed on device, it open a WebView.
