What functions does the button you are clicking call? You may want to check your Facebook app’s developer dashboard

Thank you @charliecruzan for the quick response. I am calling a function which has the following code

try {

       await Facebook.initializeAsync({

            appId: "xxx",appName:"xxx"

        });

        

        const {

            type,

            token

        } = await Facebook.logInWithReadPermissionsAsync({

            permissions: ['public_profile', 'email'],

            behavior: 'web'

        });

I have checked my Facebook developer dashboard and the details like App id, app name and all are correct.

But my Facebook app is not live, it is in development mode.

5

behavior is no longer a supported option for logInWithReadPermissionsAsync: Authentication with OAuth or OpenID providers - Expo Documentation

6

Thank you @charliecruzan. I will remove the behavior and will get back to you after testing.

7

I have removed the behavior option and tested in the simulator. I am still getting a crash.

8

are you sure the issue is with logInWithReadPermissionsAsync? what if you remove that and only call the init function? You should debug this the same way you debug any other issue in your app- remove pieces to isolate the offending call and then investigate why that call is failing

9

Yes @charliecruzan the problem is with logInWithReadPermissionsAsync. I have removed logInWithReadPermissionsAsync() and just tested with initializeAsync(), there is no crash. Then I tested running only with initializeAsync() and logInWithReadPermissionsAsync(). It worked fine in Expo Go but app is getting crashed on click of facebook button in iOS simulator.
