Hi All,
I hope you all are doing well.
We have received alerts of a substantial number of crashes on iOS only caused by the Facebook library to perform the “Sign in with Facebook”. The issues seem to have started around 6:30 PM ET, and Spotify, TikTok, Pinterest, Tinder, and more were affected, according to Downdetector. The crash is not related to Fing App.
The reason for the crash is due to FBSDKGraphRequestConnection. To explain: The issue was caused by an apparent problem with a Facebook software development kit (SDK) tool that’s used to power sign-in features for many of the apps. Many developers reported problems with the SDK in this thread on GitHub. You didn’t need to be logged into the apps via Facebook to be affected by the crashes
Hopefully, the issue will be resolved within the day.
Apologies for any inconvenience.
