Implementing Native Authentication in Android and iOS Apps

Building a seamless and secure authentication flow is critical for mobile applications, yet standard web-based redirects can disrupt the user experience. Native authentication allows you to keep users entirely within your app's native user interface during sign-up and sign-in.\n\nIn this text-only course, you will learn how to configure and integrate native authentication for Android, iOS, and macOS applications. You will discover how to design custom sign-up flows, handle user credentials securely, and maintain complete control over the visual branding of your identity screens.\n\nWhat you'll learn:\n- Understand the core concepts of native authentication versus web-based redirect flows.\n- Configure tenant settings and application registrations in Entra ID for native API access.\n- Build custom sign-up and sign-in interfaces natively on Android using modern development practices.\n- Implement secure authentication flows on iOS and macOS using native SDKs.\n- Apply modern security standards, including secure token storage and PKCE concepts.\n- Troubleshoot common integration issues, credential validation errors, and multi-factor authentication steps.\n\nYou will start with foundational identity concepts and API configurations before moving on to step-by-step implementation guides for both Android and Apple platforms. Through detailed code walkthroughs and architectural explanations, you will gain the skills to build secure, branded authentication journeys.\n\nThis course is designed for beginner mobile developers and security enthusiasts. No prior experience with native authentication is required, though a basic understanding of mobile app development is helpful.\n\nStart reading today to deliver a polished, secure, and fully branded sign-up experience in your mobile applications.
