It refers to:
https://developers.googleblog.com/2016/08/modernizing-oauth-interactions-in-native-apps.html
which asks questions about stack overflow in # google-oauth.
Two questions from the developer of the email application for Android.
There are users who have more than one Gmail account, and they do not want to add all of them to the system settings.
For accounts that are present in the system settings, I use Google Play Services, it works almost every time, so this is not the scenario that I am discussing.
For accounts that are not present there, I currently use WebView to open https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth and it just goes from there.
1
Can someone clarify what the “new OAuth clients” mean here?
New installations of existing applications (using WebView)?
Or new applications?
What do these “user notes” look like?
2
What about Android devices that don’t have Chrome installed?
Not all, and I believe that Android 4.1 is needed, while my application runs on 4.0.3 +.
Does this mean that the owners of these devices are now out of luck?
