Difficulties signing in to Twitter from iPhone
- by Tristan
Hi there,
I'm using MGTwitterEngine to add Twitter functionality to my app. It's very easy to simply prompt the user for a username and password and then start posting. Strangely, however, I've noticed other apps (eg Foursquare and Brightkite) require you to visit their website to associate your Twitter account with your foursquare/brightkite/whatever account.
Why do they do it this way?
Is there a reason why my app shouldn't prompt the user for a Twitter username and password, even though it would be so easy?
Thanks a bunch!
Tristan
