Hello everyone, The title isnt really self explanatory, so I will explain my situation in detail. I'm in the inception fase of building an iOS application and I came across a little problem which hopefully some of you can help me out with.
The situation: My App will export some data to the cloud via REST and JSON, I figured this is light weight so performance will be at best. The user should be able to access this 'data' on other devices and maybe even via the web, so I need some sort of authentication. Since I'm using REST with SSL; is it safe to send plain text username/password or should I encrypt it even though SSL takes care of this? Furthermore, I think it's annoying that someone has to login with username/password; do you guys see some sort of 'identification' type which would be more user friendly or is the username/password thing the best I can do? Hopefully it's clear enough, if not; let me know what I forgot!
