Introducing Facebook Camera
How does the app know who I am without asking me to log into Facebook? Is it guessing somehow from my FB app's login + UUID? Or am I missing something basic

Just a guess, but the iOS keychain can be used to share information across applications with a common bundle prefix.

It's weird because their other apps open a URL to authenticate within the main Facebook app. This is a bit cleaner.

I don't have the Facebook app on my iPhone (I used to but I deleted it) yet Camera still dumped me into my FB account with no login. Odd.
