Sean, with all due respect, Monte probably has a deal with livecode that enables him to retain ownership of his rights to his code that he wrote in return for whatever deal he has with livecode. Wouldn’t you? On Sun, May 27, 2018 at 09:41 Pi Digital via use-livecode <

Re: URGENT: MergGoogle no longer works on iOS: CLIENTS VERY UNHAPPY

The issue is google no longer allow you to use webviews in app to do OAuth. So basically this rules out anything that doesn’t open up an OS browser. The fastest way to resolve this for mergGoogle is to change to using GTMAppAuth from GTMOAuth2. It may be that the OAuth2 library can do what’s
