SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides clear, practical guidance for implementing secure, production-ready authentication on iOS so developers can reliably handle Sign in with Apple, OAuth web flows, password AutoFill, and biometric re-authentication without common pitfalls.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sign in with Apple: Complete ASAuthorizationController setup, delegate handling, caching first-time email/full name, and persisting the stable user identifier.
  • OAuth & ASWebAuthenticationSession: Use ASWebAuthenticationSession for provider logins, manage callback redirects, and exchange authorization codes with a backend.
  • Password AutoFill & Biometrics: Integrate ASPasswordCredential, configure textContentType for AutoFill, use LAContext for biometric prompts, and protect tokens with Keychain access controls.
  • Token Validation & Credential State: Send identityToken to a server for JWT verification against Apple's JWKS, check credential state on launch, and observe credential revocation notifications.

Quick Start

Use the authentication skill to add Sign in with Apple and ASWebAuthenticationSession flows, validate identity tokens server-side, check credential state on launch, and store session tokens securely in the Keychain.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement Sign in with Apple in a SwiftUI app?▼

To implement Sign in with Apple in a SwiftUI app, set up ASAuthorizationController, handle delegate callbacks, cache the first-time email and full name, and persist the stable user identifier in the Keychain for session management.

How does ASWebAuthenticationSession handle OAuth callback redirects on iOS?▼

ASWebAuthenticationSession handles OAuth callback redirects by opening a secure web view for provider logins, managing the authentication flow, and capturing the authorization code to exchange with your backend for valid session tokens.

How do I validate a Sign in with Apple identity token server-side?▼

Validate a Sign in with Apple identity token server-side by sending the token to your backend, verifying the JWT signature against Apple's JWKS, and confirming the payload claims before issuing a user session.

Can I use LAContext for biometric re-authentication while storing tokens in Keychain?▼

Yes, you can use LAContext for biometric re-authentication by prompting the user with Face ID or Touch ID, then securely storing and retrieving session tokens from the Keychain using SecAccessControl restrictions.

What is the best way to check Sign in with Apple credential state on app launch?▼

The best way to check Sign in with Apple credential state on app launch is to silently query the authorization status and observe credential revocation notifications to immediately handle logged-out or revoked user sessions.

Do I need NSFaceIDUsageDescription in Info.plist for iOS biometric authentication?▼

Yes, you need NSFaceIDUsageDescription in Info.plist when using biometric authentication on iOS, as it provides the required user-facing privacy message explaining why your app needs to access Face ID for secure sign-in flows.
