Hello, I'm looking for a list of iPhone apps using the new Oauth flow. Can anyone point me to some live apps to see it in action?

[twitter-dev] Re: Any iPhone Twitter apps with OAuth login ?
Hi Raffi, If you guys really wanted to go all out for the iPhone, you could implement your OAuth login page using PastryKit. It would provide ideal webview integration. For those not familiar: http://davidbcalhoun.com/2009/pastrykit-digging-into-an-apple-pie Thanks, Andrew twitter.com/siggy_sf On Jan 11, 10:32 pm, Raffi Krikorian ra...@twitter.com wrote: 2. Replace the manual PIN entry requirement with something else. The OAuth 1.0a designers greatly under-estimated the poor usability of manual PIN entry, especially on mobile devices. One suggestion off the top of my head: allow OAuth 1.0 (in addition to OAuth 1.0*a*) if--and only if--all parts of the OAuth authorization flow take place in the same TLS session (e.g. using TLS session resumption and/or a persistent HTTPS connection when/if Twitter supports persistent connections) and the application is registered as a desktop app (not a web app). i definitely hear the pain in the PIN workflow -- just as a quick point of note, we're not set up to handle persistent HTTP/HTTPS connections at this time. keep the ideas going - loving this thread. -- Raffi Krikorian Twitter Platform Teamhttp://twitter.com/raffi

[twitter-dev] Re: Any iPhone Twitter apps with OAuth login ?
Hi Raffi For me there are two very important changes that need to be made to the oAuth login page 1) The DENY button is currently default, which means if you hit the return button on the iPhone keyboard is uses DENY instead of ALLOW. Please change the default button! 2) Please have a mobile friendly version like the m.twitter.com login page so that it fits a 320px wide screen without zooming.

Something like what you get when you browse twitter.com/username from your iPhone.
[twitter-dev] Re: Any iPhone Twitter apps with OAuth login ?
Hi Raffi, I concur with the above suggestions by Fabien and Rich. Our iPhone app, heypic.me, displays the OAuth login page in a webview. Upon launching the login page, we only see about 20% of our users get all the way through the Twitter login process. This is not a bug, we've checked, but rather the cumbersome experience of using that login page.
