OAuth Maintenance Notification formatting using iOS toolkit
I'm using OAuth in an iPhone application using the standard iOS toolkit. If there is a scheduled maintence notification presented after login, the view is not optimised for the mobile screen. The user is presented with an almost completely white screen, and must scroll through to dismiss the message.
As far as I can see, there is no method for managing the window size on that notification. Is there a formatting option I'm missing? Any way to supress maintenance notifications in OAuth on a mobile device? Thanks.

Perhaps this is just an aspect of your Sandbox referesh? Identity Confirmation has always been an aspect of our Oauth API. The good news is that in Summer 11 it is re-written to help support the mobile applications with mobile optimized interfaces and workflows.

Hi Vincent...
Quick question - are you using OAuth 1.0a, or OAuth2? Our OAuth 2 implementaiton should supprsess this already.
Hi,
Suppose that would be helpful. Oauth 2. I'm using the default controllers in the iOS toolkit. I noticed this on the simulator.

Thanks - I'm looking into why you'd be seeing this.
Hi Vincent, just to double check, you're using the Force.com toolkit for iOS? http://wiki.developerforce.com/index.php/Getting_Started_with_the_Force.com_Toolkit_for_iOS Let me know please!
That's the one. With the nature of this issue, it is hard to test on my end.
It's not a deal breaker. The advantages of OAuth far outway a formatting issue that might present itself 4 times a year.

Hey Vincent - it's not clear how you got to this screen, but we're planning some additional checks in Summer 11 to help make sure you don't in the future. Thanks for calling this to our attention.
Hi,
After the Summer 11 update, we're now getitng a request to send an activation email instead of the Approve/Deny screen. This is happening on devices and simulator. We're still using iOS toolkit and Oauth 2.
