OAuth2 is a popular authorization framework that enables applications to protect resources from unauthorized access. AppAuth is an open source SDK for native Android and iOS apps. It delegates user authentication to an authorization service, which then authorizes third-party applications to access the protected resources on the user’s behalf. OAuth 2 provides authorization flows for both web and mobile applications. A sample app, implemented in Android, provides a concrete example using AppAuth to authorize access to private resources.
