 * Hi there,
    Have just been through updating everything, managed to get social 
   logins to work from desktop and safari on IOS, however messenger webview isn’t
   working..
 * Login with Facebook is redirecting to the WordPress login form.
 * Login with Google says;
    “Error: disallowed_useragent” This user-agent is not
   permitted to make an OAuth authorizatio request to Google as it is classified
   as an embedded user-agent (also known as web-view)
 * Has anyone had similar issues? Please help!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmessenger-webview-not-working%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@neut0942](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neut0942/),
 * When I try to log in to your site with Facebook I get this message:
    `We could
   not log you in: You can't log in to this app or website because you do not meet
   the requirements for country, age or other criteria.`
 * Could you remove the requirements, so I can try it again?
 * **Google**
    Google do not allow to use the login flow in WebView. There is no
   possible way to skip this limitation. [Nextend Social Login -> WebView docs](https://nextendweb.com/nextend-social-login-docs/can-use-nextend-social-login-webview/)
 * If your theme developer would use the Nextend Social Login to render the social
   login buttons, then the Google button wouldn’t appear when WebView detected.

 * Hi there, thanks for your reply,
    I’ve unlocked the country limitation,
 * I wonder how Pinterest etc gets around it, as i know they can log in through 
   a messenger webview.
 * This is really racking my brain, we’re almost set for launch, help is much appreciated!

    Pinterest has their
   own app which is probably installed on your phone and this is why it works. The
   Google oauth sign in blocked only in WebView, but it works fine in native apps.
   But as you do not have native app, you can not use Google SSO.
 * **Facebook**
    I checked and I was able to log in with Facebook to your site through
   Facebook Messenger WebView. You can check my account in your user’s list. Could
   you try it again?
