In one embodiment, an intermediate server receives a request with a secure ID to authorize a software application, transmits the secure ID to a system, receives an access token from the system indicating that the software application has been authorized, evaluates the access token for validity, and transmits a response to the mobile device indicating the software application is authorized.

Proxy bypass login for applications on mobile devices

Techniques for social networking systems and methods for testing and applying user interfaces are disclosed herein. The method includes steps of presenting a user interface including a new user interface feature to a group of test users, collecting response data from the test users experiencing the user interface, performing analytics on the response data, and determining at least one interface rule of applying user interface features for a user depending on one or more user attributes of the user based on the analytics using a machine learning model.

Adaptive user interface using machine learning model

In one embodiment, a social-networking system authenticates a user of a mobile device, receives a request from the mobile device to install a software application, transmits data to the mobile device comprising the software application and an installation identifier (ID), receives another request including the installation ID from the mobile device to authorize the software application, evaluates the installation ID for validity, and transmits yet another response to the mobile device in accordance with the evaluation.

Bypass login for applications on mobile devices

An intermediate server can receive a request from a mobile device to authorize a software application, transmit a secure ID included in the request to a social-networking system, receive an access token from the social-networking system indicating that the software application has been authorized, evaluate the access token for validity, and transmit a response to the mobile device indicating the software application is authorized. The secure ID can indicate that a user of the mobile device has been authenticated by the social-networking system. The access token can be valid when the access token and the secure ID both correspond to the user of the mobile device.
