[keycloak-user] Mobile SSO - web brower+ native iOS

[Scott Rossillo]

If you’re able to use OpenID Connect, this should be easy.

Create a client in Keycloak for your native iOS App. Use offline tokens. Register your redirect scheme with Keycloak as myapp://foo or whatever makes sense.  If the user is logged into the mobile app, on first redirect to the native client, user shouldn’t see the login screen since they’re already logged in. Your App will get an offline token. This way, if the user enters the iOS app directly again - even days later - they’ll already be logged in via the offline token.

I don’t think you need any changes in Keycloak to support this flow.

Best,
Scott
